Current Role of Lipoprotein Apheresis [PDF]
Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 2019 Purpose of Review Lipoprotein apheresis is a very efficient but time-consuming and expensive method of lowering levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, lipoprotein(a)) and other apoB containing lipoproteins, including triglyceride-rich ...

Decreased production of low density lipoprotein by atorvastatin after apheresis in homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia [PDF]
Journal of Lipid Research, 1997 Apheresis only partially controls raised low density lipoprotein cholesterol levels in patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia, who usually respond poorly to lipid-lowering drugs.

Low-density lipoprotein apheresis is associated with removal of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. [PDF]
Ther Apher Dial, 2022 \(\bf Background\) Low-density lipoprotein apheresis is not specific to lipoproteins but removes immunoglobulins as well. It remains elusive, whether protective SARS-CoV-2 antibodies after vaccination from COVID-19 are eliminated as well.

The scientific basis and future of lipoprotein apheresis [PDF]
, 2021 Lipoprotein apheresis plays a vital role in the management of the severe hyperlipidemias that predispose to atherosclerosis. Determinants of efficacy are the acute reduction in lipoproteins achieved by each apheresis procedure, their frequency, and the ...
