Analysis of α-lipoprotein cholesterol in 50 μl of plasma

Journal of Lipid Research, 1974
A micromethod for quantitation of α-lipoprotein cholesterol was devised for gas–liquid chromatography to minimize plasma sample size and facilitate lipid studies using capillary blood from children or small animals. α-Lipoprotein cholesterol was measured

Deep coverage whole genome sequences and plasma lipoprotein(a) in individuals of European and African ancestries. [PDF]

, 2018
Lipoprotein(a), Lp(a), is a modified low-density lipoprotein particle that contains apolipoprotein(a), encoded by LPA, and is a highly heritable, causal risk factor for cardiovascular diseases that varies in concentrations across ancestries. Here, we use

Platelets and Lipoproteins

Platelets, 1994
Sir, Malle and Sattler's excellent review links lipids with the release of serotonin from platelets.' It is therefore, of interest that correlations between serum cholesterol and intraplatelet/plasma serotonin concentrations have been reported.'-* Moreover, reducing serum cholesterol and low density lipoprotein (LDL) concentrations normalised ...

Phosphatidylinositol promotes cholesterol transport in vivo

Journal of Lipid Research, 2000
To examine the role that lipoprotein charge plays in cholesterol metabolism in vivo, we characterized the effects of an intravenous injection of 40 μmol of an uncharged phospholipid (phosphatidylcholine, PC) or an anionic phospholipid ...

Soluble levels of receptor for advanced glycation endproducts and dysfunctional high-density lipoprotein in persons infected with human immunodeficiency virus: ACTG NWCS332. [PDF]

, 2018
The role of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) function and advanced glycation end products (AGEs) in HIV-related atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD) is unclear.

Replacement of dietary saturated fatty acids by trans fatty acids lowers serum HDL cholesterol and impairs endothelial function in healthy men and women [PDF]

, 2001
We tested whether trans fatty acids and saturated fatty acids had different effects on flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD), a risk marker of coronary heart disease (CHD). Consumption of trans fatty acids is related to increased risk of CHD, probably through

Evolving lipoprotein risk factors: lipoprotein(a) and oxidized low-density lipoprotein [PDF]

Clinical Chemistry, 1998
Abstract Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in Westernized populations. Evolving lipoprotein risk factors include LDL oxidation and lipoprotein(a) [lp(a)]. Several lines of evidence support a role for oxidatively modified LDL in atherogenesis and its in vivo existence.

Human plasma CETP deficiency: identification of a novel mutation in exon 9 of the CETP gene in a Caucasian subject from North America

Journal of Lipid Research, 1998
Human plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is a 476-residue hydrophobic glycoprotein that catalyzes the heterotransfer of cholesteryl esters and triacylglycerols among lipoproteins: Mutations in the CETP gene have been identified, mostly in ...

Lipid Metabolism and Comparative Genomics [PDF]

, 2006
Unilever asked the Study Group to focus on two problems. The first concerned dysregulated lipid metabolism which is a feature of many diseases including metabolic syndrome, obesity and coronary heart disease.

The secondary structure of apolipoprotein A-I on 9.6-nm reconstituted high-density lipoprotein determined by EPR spectroscopy. [PDF]

, 2013
Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) is the major protein component of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and is critical for maintenance of cholesterol homeostasis.
