Moderate exercise increases affinity of large very low density lipoproteins for hydrolysis by lipoprotein lipase [PDF]
, 2015 Context: Postprandial triglyceride (TG) concentration is independently associated with cardiovascular disease risk. Exercise reduces postprandial TG concentrations but the mechanisms responsible are unclear.

Determinants of binding of oxidized phospholipids on apolipoprotein (a) and lipoprotein (a)1
Journal of Lipid Research, 2013 Oxidized phospholipids (OxPLs) are present on apolipoprotein (a) [apo(a)] and lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] but the determinants influencing their binding are not known.

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.

Assessing the effect of statins in lowering the risk of stroke and preventing cerebral ischemia in patients with hypercholesterolemia [PDF]
, 2017 Numerous analyses have explored the role of statins in reducing stroke incidence, reducing cerebral ischemia in hypercholesterolemic patients, and preventing ischemic stroke.

Lipoprotein(a) at a “Tipping Point”: case to move to universal screening
American Journal of Preventive CardiologyElevated lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is well established as a common risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Lp(a) levels are >90 % genetically determined.

Lipoprotein (a) levels in relation to severity of coronary artery disease in north Indian patients
Heart Views, 2013 Background: Lipoprotein (a) [Lp (a)] is an established risk marker of coronary artery disease which is independent from other risk factors. Objective: The aim was to address the association between Lp (a) and CAD risk in North Indians.

Serum lipid profiles in acute myocardial infarction patients in Gorgan [PDF]
, 2012 Acute myocardial infarction is one of the important reasons of death and unhealthiness in the world. The present study was undertaken to investigate the changes in serum lipids and lipoproteins in patients with acute myocardial infarction. This study was

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

MCP-1 binds to oxidized LDL and is carried by lipoprotein(a) in human plasma
Journal of Lipid Research, 2013 Lipoprotein oxidation plays an important role in pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Oxidized low density lipoprotein (OxLDL) induces profound inflammatory responses in vascular cells, such as production of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1 ...

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular DiseaseBackground Lipoprotein (a) is an independent risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. However, lipoprotein (a) testing remains variable and it is unclear what factors influence testing and if testing changes clinical management.
