Dysfunctional high-density lipoprotein [PDF]

Current Opinion in Endocrinology, Diabetes & Obesity, 2009
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.

LDL and HDL transfer rates across peripheral microvascular endothelium agree with those predicted for passive ultrafiltration in humans

Journal of Lipid Research, 2015
The mechanisms by which LDLs and HDLs cross the vascular endothelium from plasma into interstitial fluid are not understood, and have never been studied in humans in vivo.

Coronary artery endothelial dysfunction is positively correlated with low density lipoprotein and inversely correlated with high density lipoprotein subclass particles measured by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

, 2009
OBJECTIVE: The association between cholesterol and endothelial dysfunction remains controversial. We tested the hypothesis that lipoprotein subclasses are associated with coronary endothelial dysfunction.

Selective and independent associations of phospholipid transfer protein and hepatic lipase with the LDL subfraction distribution

Journal of Lipid Research, 2002
Phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP), hepatic lipase (HL), and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) have all been reported to be intricately involved in HDL metabolism but the effect of PLTP on the apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins relative to that of HL and ...

Apolipoprotein M expression increases the size of nascent preβ HDL formed by ATP binding cassette transporter A1

Journal of Lipid Research, 2010
Apolipoprotein M (apoM) is a novel apolipoprotein that is reportedly necessary for preβ HDL formation; however, its detailed function remains unknown. We investigated the biogenesis and properties of apoM and its effects on the initial steps of nascent ...

Inverse Association Between Serum Non–High‐Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Levels and Mortality in Patients Undergoing Incident Hemodialysis

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background There is accumulating evidence that serum levels of non–high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (non–HDL‐C) are a more accurate predictor of cardiovascular outcomes when compared with low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol.

Maturation of high-density lipoproteins

Journal of The Royal Society Interface, 2009
Human high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) are involved in the transport of cholesterol. The mechanism by which HDL assembles and functions is not well understood owing to a lack of structural information on circulating spherical HDL. Here, we report a series of molecular dynamics simulations that describe the maturation of discoidal HDL into spherical HDL

Arginine-directed glycation and decreased HDL plasma concentration and functionality [PDF]

, 2014
Background/Objectives: Decreased plasma concentration of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is a risk factor linked to increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Decreased anti-atherogenic properties of HDL are also implicated in increased
