Platelet interaction with bioactive lipids formed by mild oxidation of low-density lipoprotein [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) generates pro-inflammatory and pro-thrombotic mediators that play a crucial role in cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases.

Study of serum lipid profile in the smokers

open access: yesNational Journal of Physiology, Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 2020
Background: Smoking of cigarettes has been found to alter lipoprotein levels. Smoking raises the blood total cholesterol (TC) content, triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and very LDL (VLDL) and reduces the level of good cholesterol, i.e.,

Cholesterol Efflux Capacity, High-Density Lipoprotein Function, and Atherosclerosis

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2011
BACKGROUND High-density lipoprotein (HDL) may provide cardiovascular protection by promoting reverse cholesterol transport from macrophages. We hypothesized that the capacity of HDL to accept cholesterol from macrophages would serve as a predictor of ...

Coronary risk prediction by the correlation of total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein, triglyceride/high-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein/high-density lipoprotein ratios, non-high-density lipoprotein, apolipoprotein-B, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein with low-density lipoprotein in Indian patients under statin therapy

open access: yesHeart India, 2019
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

open access: yesCells, 2023
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 ...

Effects of dalcetrapib in patients with a recent acute coronary syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In observational analyses, higher levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol have been associated with a lower risk of coronary heart disease events.

Changes in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol with risk of Cardiovascular Disease among initially high-density lipoprotein-high participants

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology, 2023
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 ...

Assembly of High-Density Lipoprotein [PDF]

open access: yesArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2006
Mammalian somatic cells do not catabolize cholesterol and need to export it for its homeostasis at the levels of cells and whole bodies. This reaction may reduce intracellularly accumulated cholesterol in excess and would contribute to prevention or regression of the initial stage of atherosclerosis.

Effect of a high intake of conjugated linoleic acid on lipoprotein levels in healthy human subjects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background -Trans fatty acids are produced either by industrial hydrogenation or by biohydrogenation in the rumens of cows and sheep. Industrial trans fatty acids lower high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, raise low-density lipoprotein (LDL ...

High-density lipoprotein cholesterol: How High

open access: yesIndian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2012
The high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is considered anti-atherogenic good cholesterol. It is involved in reverse transport of lipids. Epidemiological studies have found inverse relationship of HDL-C and coronary heart disease (CHD) risk.
