Relationship Between Physical Conditioning and Plasma High Density Lipoprotein-Cholesterol Concentration [PDF]
Five subjects (three females and two males) took part in an exercise regimen in order to determine if aerobic exercise results in an increase in high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol levels (HDL-C) in the plasma.

Effect of interleukin-6 receptor blockade on surrogates of vascular risk in rheumatoid arthritis: MEASURE, a randomised, placebo-controlled study [PDF]
Objectives The interleukin-6 receptor (IL-6R) blocker tocilizumab (TCZ) reduces inflammatory disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) but elevates lipid concentrations in some patients.

High-Density Lipoproteins [PDF]
The substantial residual cardiovascular events present in statin-treated patients provide a challenge to researchers in the cardiovascular field to develop additional therapeutic approaches. In cardiovascular disease (CVD) epidemiology, few associations are as consistent and enduring as the ...

In thyroid cancer patients, high‐dose (≥7.4 GBq) radioactive iodine therapy (RAIT) was associated with a higher prevalence of clonal hematopoiesis (variant allele frequency >2%) in individuals aged ≥50 years (OR = 2.44). In silico analyses showed that truncating PPM1D mutations conferred a selective advantage under these conditions.

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 ...

Role of Gamma Glutamyl Transferase in the Diagnosis of Metabolic Syndrome in Patients with Hypothyroidism [PDF]
Introduction: Hypothyroidism is the most prevalent thyroid disorder in India that affects one in ten adults. Gamma Glutamyl Transferase (GGT) is an ectopic enzyme associated with oxidative stress in various diseased conditions.

Differences in GlycA and lipoprotein particle parameters may help distinguish acute kawasaki disease from other febrile illnesses in children. [PDF]
BackgroundGlycosylation patterns of serum proteins, such as α1-acid glycoprotein, are modified during an acute phase reaction. The response of acute Kawasaki disease (KD) patients to IVIG treatment has been linked to sialic acid levels on native IgG ...

Small extracellular vesicles are a promising source of diagnostic molecules. We conducted a comprehensive study, including transcriptome profiling and RT‐qPCR validation on large cohorts of samples. Diagnostic panels enabling sensitive detection of colorectal cancer and precancerous lesions were established. Some molecules were differentially expressed

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.

Maternal obesity is associated with the formation of small dense LDL and hypoadiponectinemia in the third trimester [PDF]
Context: Maternal obesity is associated with high plasma triglyceride, poor vascular function, and an increased risk for pregnancy complications. In normal-weight pregnant women, higher triglyceride is associated with increased small, dense low-density ...
