Influence of an atherogenic diet on the structure of swine low density lipoproteins
Five groups of three swine each were fed a basal diet supplemented with 15% tallow and either 0.0, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0%, or 2.5% cholesterol. The animals were studied over a period of 9 weeks to observe changes in plasma lipids and low density lipoproteins ...

Addressing dyslipidemic risk beyond LDL-cholesterol [PDF]
Despite the success of LDL-lowering drugs in reducing cardiovascular disease (CVD), there remains a large burden of residual disease due in part to persistent dyslipidemia characterized by elevated levels of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRLs) and reduced levels of HDL.

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 ...

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.

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

Oxidised LDL, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol levels in patients of coronary artery disease [PDF]
Coronary artery disease is a major cause of morbidity and has various risk factors. Lipid profile i.e. low HDL-cholesterol, high LDL cholesterol, high total cholesterol, high triglycerides playing important role in its causation. Recently interest has been shown in the oxidized fraction of LDL as one of the risk factors. In the present study 60 age and

Effectiveness of a simultaneous inhibition of cholesterol absorption and synthesis, caused by sitostanol ester margarine and pravastatin, was studied to control mild hypercholesterolemia in men with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) (n = 8).

In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.
