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

open access: yes, 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 ...

Roles of reconstituted high-density lipoprotein nanoparticles in cardiovascular disease: A new paradigm for drug discovery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Epidemiological results revealed that there is an inverse correlation between high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels and risks of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD).

Assessment of the Utilization of Lipoprotein (a) and its Relationship with Cardiovascular Outcomes: A Retrospective Cohort Study from a Public Hospital in New York City

open access: yesHeart Views
Introduction: Lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] is an independent genetic risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and is associated with an increased risk of heart failure (HF), multiple vascular and valvular abnormalities and is closely ...

Spirochetal Lipoproteins and Immune Evasion. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Spirochetes are a major threat to public health. However, the exact pathogenesis of spirochetal diseases remains unclear. Spirochetes express lipoproteins that often determine the cross talk between the host and spirochetes.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Can Lp(a) become the next A1C? A case for digital health management tools to overcome inertia to Lipoprotein (a) testing

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
Despite its known correlations with risk of cardiovascular disease, awareness and testing for Lipoprotein (a) lags that of other serological markers with estimates that less than 1% of the US population have undergone screening.

Liver Transplantation to Provide Low-Density-Lipoprotein Receptors and Lower Plasma Cholesterol in a Child with Homozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
A six-year-old girl with severe hypercholesterolemia and atherosclerosis had two defective genes at the low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) receptor locus, as determined by biochemical studies of cultured fibroblasts.

The role of fibroblast growth factors in cell and cancer metabolism

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling regulates crucial signaling cascades that promote cell proliferation, survival, and metabolism. Therefore, FGFs and their receptors are often dysregulated in human diseases, including cancer, to sustain proliferation and rewire metabolism.

Identification of a residue in hepatitis C virus E2 glycoprotein that determines scavenger receptor BI and CD81 receptor dependency and sensitivity to neutralizing antibodies. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is dependent on at least three coreceptors: CD81, scavenger receptor BI (SR-BI), and claudin-1. The mechanism of how these molecules coordinate HCV entry is unknown.
