Cellular cholesterol efflux and cholesterol loading capacity of serum: effects of LDL-apheresis

Journal of Lipid Research, 2012
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.

Deep-coverage whole genome sequences and blood lipids among 16,324 individuals. [PDF]

, 2018
Large-scale deep-coverage whole-genome sequencing (WGS) is now feasible and offers potential advantages for locus discovery. We perform WGS in 16,324 participants from four ancestries at mean depth >29X and analyze genotypes with four quantitative ...

Fenofibrate treatment increases human serum proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 levels

Journal of Lipid Research, 2010
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.

FoxO3 transcription factor and Sirt6 deacetylase regulate LDL-cholesterol homeostasis via control of the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (Pcsk9) gene expression [PDF]

, 2013
Elevated LDL-cholesterol is a risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease. Thus, proper control of LDL-cholesterol homeostasis is critical for organismal health.

Biochemical and cytotoxic characteristics of an in vivo circulating oxidized low density lipoprotein (LDL-).

Journal of Lipid Research, 1994
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]

Indian Journal of Clinical Biochemistry, 2006
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
