Nanosilica mops up host lipids and fights baculovirus: a B. mori model [PDF]
Malaria and other parasites, including virus often induce an increase in host lipids which the invaders use to their own advantage. We obtained encouraging results in our investigations on bird malaria with a new approach namely the use of nanosilica to mop up excess host lipids.

VLDL receptor mediates the uptake of human chylomicron remnants in vitro.
The VLDL receptor has been described as a new member of the LDL receptor supergene family that specifically binds VLDL in vitro via apolipoprotein E and lipoprotein lipase.

Blood lipoproteins shape the phenotype and lipid content of early atherosclerotic lesion macrophages: a dual-structured mathematical model [PDF]
Macrophages in atherosclerotic lesions exhibit a spectrum of behaviours or phenotypes. The phenotypic distribution of monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs), its correlation with MDM lipid content, and relation to blood lipoprotein densities are not well understood.

Infusion of atherogenic lipoprotein particles increases hepatic lipase activity in the rabbit.
Hepatic lipase plays a key role in the turnover of potentially atherogenic lipoprotein remnants and in determining the relative distribution of high density lipoprotein (HDL) particle size subclasses.

Innovative pharmacotherapy for hepatic metabolic and chronic inflammatory diseases in China
Abstract Liver disease constitutes a significant global health concern, particularly in China where it has distinctive characteristics. China grapples with a staggering 300 million cases, predominantly due to hepatitis B and metabolic non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease. Additionally, hepatocellular carcinoma has become a prevalent which is a lethal type

Studies on monozygotic twins support a role for genetic determinants of plasma lipid, lipoprotein, and apolipoprotein levels. Gene variants of the enzyme lipoprotein lipase have been shown to associate with dyslipidemia and coronary artery disease.

Targeting Regulation of Macrophage to Treat Metabolic Disease: Role of Phytochemicals
One‐third of the world's population is affected by metabolic syndrome. Complicated pathogenesis and limited drugs cause the growing prevalence of metabolic syndrome. Macrophage‐mediated metaflammation is closely associated with the development of metabolic syndrome. The role of phytochemicals targeting macrophages in the treatment of metabolic syndrome

Expression of lipoprotein lipase in different human subcutaneous adipose tissue regions
Steady state expression of lipoprotein lipase was compared in abdominal and gluteal subcutaneous adipose tissue of nonobese men and women. In both regions enzyme activity and lipoprotein lipase mRNA levels were significantly higher in women than in men ...
