Plasma lipoproteins: apolipoprotein structure and function.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1984 Plasma lipoprotein metabolism is regulated and controlled by the specific apolipoprotein (apo-) constituents of the various lipoprotein classes. The major apolipoproteins include apoE, apoB, apoA-I, apoA-II, apoA-IV, apoC-I, apoC-II, and apoC-III ...

Lipoprotein(a) and atherosclerosis
Атеросклероз, 2007 Lp(a) lipoprotein is one of atherogenic forms of lipoproteins, it was discovered over 45 years ago. Lp(a) is a quantitative feature, its concentration being under polygenic control.

Postprandial lipoprotein metabolism and atherosclerosis
Current Opinion in Lipidology, 1995 The metabolism of chylomicrons and their remnants is a highly facilitated route to distribute energy from the diet for storage in adipose tissue or immediate use in the muscles. It has been proposed that chylomicron remnants are atherogenic, and a delayed clearance of chylomicron remnants seems to be associated with compositional abnormalities of other

Oxylipin transport by lipoprotein particles and its functional implications for cardiometabolic and neurological disorders [PDF]
Lipoprotein metabolism is critical to inflammation. While the periphery and central nervous system (CNS) have separate yet connected lipoprotein systems, impaired lipoprotein metabolism is implicated in both cardiometabolic and neurological disorders ...

Атеросклероз, 2012 Most of the recent studies demonstrate that the quantitative level of Lp(a) and especially its low-molecular apo(a) phenotypes are independent risk factors of coronary atherosclerosis and correlate directly with the appearance, progress, and severity of

Modelling the inflammatory process in atherosclerosis: a nonlinear renewal equation [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 We present here a population structured model to describe the dynamics of macrophage cells. The model involves the interactions between modified LDL, monocytes/macrophages, cytokines and foam cells. The key assumption is that the individual macrophage dynamics depends on the amount of lipoproteins it has internalized.

Effects of ursodeoxycholic acid on synthesis of cholesterol and bile acids in healthy subjects [PDF]
, 2004 Background/Aims: Ursodeoxycholic acid ( UDCA) decreases biliary secretion of cholesterol and is therefore used for the dissolution of cholesterol gallstones.

ApoA-II modulates the association of HDL with class B scavenger receptors SR-BI and CD36
Journal of Lipid Research, 2004 The class B scavenger receptors SR-BI and CD36 exhibit a broad ligand binding specificity. SR-BI is well characterized as a HDL receptor that mediates selective cholesteryl ester uptake from HDL.

Effect of hypertension on low-density lipoprotein transport within a multi-layered arterial wall: modelling consistent with experiments [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 The influence of hypertension on low-density lipoproteins intake into the arterial wall is an important factor for understanding mechanisms of atherosclerosis. It has been experimentally observed that the increased pressure leads to the higher level of the LDL inside the wall.
