The role of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitors in managing cardiovascular risk
Hypercholesterolaemia and dyslipidaemia, marked by decreased levels of high-density lipoprotein and elevated levels of lowdensity lipoprotein (LDL), increase the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Thyrotropin modulates low density lipoprotein binding activity in FRTL-5 thyroid cells. [PDF]
FRTL-5 cells possess high affinity low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors which bind, internalize, and degrade LDL. When FRTL-5 cells are deprived of thyrotropin (TSH) the binding of LDL increases more than 2-fold.

Lipid metabolism in pancreatic cancer: emerging roles and potential targets
Abstract Pancreatic cancer is one of the most serious health issues in developed and developing countries, with a 5‐year overall survival rate currently <9%. Patients typically present with advanced disease due to vague symptoms or lack of screening for early cancer detection.

Structural Properties of High and Low Density Water in a Supercooled Aqueous Solution of Salt [PDF]
We consider and compare the structural properties of bulk TIP4P water and of a sodium chloride aqueous solution in TIP4P water with concentration c = 0.67 mol/kg, in the metastable supercooled region. In a previous paper [D. Corradini, M. Rovere and P. Gallo, J. Chem. Phys.

Identification, regulation and function of a novel lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor [PDF]
Oxidatively modified low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) leads to endothelial activation, dysfunction and injury. Recently, a novel lectin-like receptor for ox-LDL (LOX-1) has been identified, primarily in the endothelial cells, and it allows uptake of ox ...

СОХРАНЕНИЕ РЕЦЕПТОРОВ ЛПНП — НОВЫЙ ПОДХОД К ТЕРАПИИ ГИПЕРЛИПИДЕМИИ
LDL receptor plays a key role in the metabolism of LDL cholesterol. It have been shown that proprotein convertase subtlisin/kexin type 9 is essential for post-transcriptional regulatation of the cell surface expression of the LDL receptor by ...

An integrated mathematical model of cellular cholesterol biosynthesis and lipoprotein metabolism [PDF]
Cholesterol regulation is an important aspect of human health. In this work we bring together and extend two recent mathematical models describing cholesterol biosynthesis and lipoprotein endocytosis to create an integrated model of lipoprotein ...

Label Distribution Learning from Logical Label [PDF]
Label distribution learning (LDL) is an effective method to predict the label description degree (a.k.a. label distribution) of a sample. However, annotating label distribution (LD) for training samples is extremely costly. So recent studies often first use label enhancement (LE) to generate the estimated label distribution from the logical label and ...
