The metabolism of lipoprotein (a): an ever-evolving story [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2017
Lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] is characterized by apolipoprotein (a) [apo(a)] covalently bound to apolipoprotein B 100. It was described in human plasma by Berg et al.

The kringle IV type 2 domain variant 4925G>A causes the elusive association signal of the LPA pentanucleotide repeat

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2022
Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] concentrations are regulated by the LPA gene mainly via the large kringle IV-type 2 (KIV-2) copy number variation and multiple causal variants.

Reducing saturated fat intake lowers LDL-C but increases Lp(a) levels in African Americans: the GET-READI feeding trial

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2023
Reducing dietary saturated fatty acids (SFA) intake results in a clinically significant lowering of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) across ethnicities.

Dietary fish oil enriched in very-long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid reduces cardiometabolic risk factors and improves retinal function

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Very-long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (VLCPUFAs; C24-38) constitute a unique class of PUFA that have important biological roles, but the lack of a suitable dietary source has limited research in this field.

A new phenotypic classification system for dyslipidemias based on the standard lipid panel

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2021
Highlights A new algorithm is described for categorizing dyslipidemic patients into Fredrickson-like lipoprotein phenotypes except for Type III. The new lipoprotein phenotypes were validated by NMR-lipoprotein analysis and by agarose gel electrophoresis ...

A Dynamical Model of Lipoprotein Metabolism [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2007
We present a dynamical model of lipoprotein metabolism derived by combining a cascading process in the blood stream and cellular level regulatory dynamics. We analyse the existence and stability of equilibria and show that this low-dimensional, nonlinear model exhibits bistability between a low and a high cholesterol state.

Triglyceride Metabolism Modifies Lipoprotein(a) Plasma Concentration

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2022
AbstractBackgroundLipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) is a significant cardiovascular risk factor. Knowing the mechanisms that regulate its concentration can facilitate the development of Lp(a)-lowering drugs. This study analyzes the relationship between triglycerides (TGs) and Lp(a) concentrations, cross-sectionally and longitudinally, and the influence of the ...

Lipoprotein metabolism indicators improve cardiovascular risk prediction. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular disease risk increases when lipoprotein metabolism is dysfunctional. We have developed a computational model able to derive indicators of lipoprotein production, lipolysis, and uptake processes from a single lipoprotein profile

Causal associations between disorders of lipoprotein metabolism and ten cardiovascular diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Disorders of lipoprotein metabolism have been linked with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) but the causal association is unclear. In this study, we investigated the causal association between disorders of lipoprotein metabolism and ...
