Cellular cholesterol efflux and cholesterol loading capacity of serum: effects of LDL-apheresis
High LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) characterizes familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCH). LDL-apheresis, used in these patients to reduce LDL-C levels, has been shown to also affect HDL levels and composition.

These studies were undertaken to examine the effect of aging on low density lipoprotein (LDL) metabolism in the male hamster. When the hamsters were maintained on a low-cholesterol, low-triglyceride diet, rates of LDL transport in the various tissues of ...

Fenofibrate treatment increases human serum proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 levels
Over the past several years, proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9) has gained significant attention as a key regulator of serum LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) levels.

Using ion exchange high pressure liquid chromatography, total plasma low density lipoprotein (LDL) from 30 hypercholesterolemic and 10 normocholesterolemic cynomolgus monkeys was subfractionated into unmodified LDL (n-LDL) and more negatively charged LDL

Cardiovascular outcomes and LDL-cholesterol levels in EMPA-REG OUTCOME
Objective: It is well established that higher low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol levels are associated with increased cardiovascular risk. We analyzed whether effects of empagliflozin on cardiovascular outcomes varied by different LDL-cholesterol ...

Quantitation of the in vitro free cholesterol exchange of human red cells and lipoproteins
The exchange of free cholesterol in vitro between human red blood cells and low density lipoproteins (LDL) was quantified. The flux of sterol between LDL and red cells was relatively constant over a wide range of concentrations of free cholesterol in ...

Standardization of Apolipoprotein B, LDL‐Cholesterol, and Non‐HDL‐Cholesterol
Concern continues about whether the measurement of apolipoprotein B (apoB) is adequately standardized, and therefore, whether apoB should be applied widely in clinical care. This concern is misplaced.

LDL cholesterol and atherosclerosis: The evidence.
The lipid theory of atherosclerosis dates back more than a century. Despite this, some authors have questioned the relevance of hypercholesterolaemia in its development. Multiple experimental, epidemiological, and clinical evidence underpins this association.
