Background and Design: Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin disease. The monocyte/high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol ratio (MHR), neutrophil/HDL cholesterol ratio (NHR), and lymphocyte/HDL cholesterol ratio (LHR) are new inflammatory parameters

Dysfunctional high-density lipoprotein [PDF]
To address the progress of the investigation on dysfunctional high-density lipoprotein (HDL).HDL is generally considered to be an independent protective factor against cardiovascular disease. However, emerging evidence indicates that HDL can be modified under certain circumstances and lose its protective effect or even become atherogenic.

Obesity-Related Changes in High-Density Lipoprotein Metabolism and Function
In obese individuals, atherogenic dyslipidemia is a very common and important factor in the increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Adiposity-associated dyslipidemia is characterized by low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and an ...

SR-BI-mediated selective lipid uptake segregates apoA-I and apoA-II catabolism
The HDL receptor scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) binds HDL and mediates the selective uptake of cholesteryl ester. We previously showed that remnants, produced when human HDL2 is catabolized in mice overexpressing SR-BI, become incrementally ...

Lipids and Lipoproteins in Health and Disease: Focus on Targeting Atherosclerosis
Despite advances in pharmacotherapy, intervention devices and techniques, residual cardiovascular risks still cause a large burden on public health. Whilst most guidelines encourage achieving target levels of specific lipids and lipoproteins to reduce ...

High density lipoprotein metabolism in low density lipoprotein receptor-deficient mice1[S]
The LDL receptor (LDLR) and scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) play physiological roles in LDL and HDL metabolism in vivo. In this study, we explored HDL metabolism in LDLR-deficient mice in comparison with WT littermates.

Primary genetic disorders affecting high density lipoprotein (HDL)
There is extensive evidence demonstrating that there is a clear inverse correlation between plasma high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentration and cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Background: Patients are treated with statins for the control of cholesterol; but statins control only low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and not non-high-density lipoprotein (non-HDL). Also, LDL is not a good coronary risk predictor.

Alternations of Lipoprotein Profiles in the Plasma as Biomarkers of Huntington’s Disease
Alterations in lipid composition and disturbed lipoprotein metabolism are involved in the pathomechanism of Huntington’s disease (HD). Here, we measured 112 lipoprotein subfractions and components in the plasma of 20 normal controls, 24 symptomatic ...

Background High-density lipoprotein cholesterol’s (HDL-C) long-held status as a cardiovascular disease (CVD) preventative has been called into question. Most of the evidence, however, focused on either the risk of death from CVD, or on single time point ...
