Estimating the level of carbamoylated plasma non-high-density lipoproteins using infrared spectroscopy [PDF]
Background: The increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality observed in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients can be partly explained by the presence of carbamoylated lipoproteins. Lipid profiles can be determined with infrared spectroscopy. In this

Subfractions of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and dysfunctional HDL in chronic kidney disease patients [PDF]
A number of studies have shown that chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with increased risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Chronic kidney disease is characterized by significant disturbances in lipoprotein metabolism, including differences in quantitative and qualitative content of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles. Recent studies have

Immunochemical studies on human plasma lipoproteins [PDF]
Some years ago, a series of human serum lipoproteins, distinguishable by their hydrated densities and lipid-protein ratios were recognized and isolated by ultracentrifugal techniques (1).

Identification and Characterization of the Lipid Transport System in the Tarantula Grammostola rosea [PDF]
Lipids due to its hydrophobic nature are transported in the hemolymph mainly by lipoproteic fractions. In the present work we studied the lipoproteic fractions present in the hemolymph of the spider Grammostola rosea.

Influence of different fat emulsions with 10 or 20% MCT/LCT or LCT on lipoproteins in plasma of patients after abdominal surgery [PDF]
In patients after elective abdominal surgery, different fat emulsions were used to compare their efficacy in total parenteral nutrition and in normalizing plasma lipoprotein levels.

Promotion of Lymphocyte Growth by High Density Lipoproteins (HDL) [PDF]
The characteristics and physiological relevance of the high density lipoprotein (HDL) binding site on unstimulated and mitogen activated human peripheral blood lymphocytes have been investigated. At 37 degrees C, specific binding/uptake of fluorescent (dioctadecylin-docarbocyanine, DiI) HDL was observed by cells from healthy donors as well as by those ...

Oxidized low-density lipoprotein inhibits hepatitis C virus cell entry in human hepatoma cells. [PDF]
Cell entry of hepatitis C virus, pseudoparticles (HCVpp) and cell culture grown virus (HCVcc), requires the interaction of viral glycoproteins with CD81 and other as yet unknown cellular factors.

Effect of a novel nutraceutical combination on serum lipoprotein functional profile and circulating PCSK9 [PDF]
BACKGROUND: A beneficial effect on cardiovascular risk may be obtained by improving lipid-related serum lipoprotein functions such as high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC) and serum cholesterol loading capacity (CLC) and by ...

hdl a molecular view of the classic antiatherogenic lipoprotein [PDF]
L'estudi del metabolisme de les HDL (lipoproteïnes de densitat alta) i la seva relació amb l'arteriosclerosi és un tema complex, en el qual, recentment, s'han fet avenços importants. Primer, s'ha demostrat que les HDL tenen una acció antiaterogènica. Segon, s'ha establert que aquesta acció és deguda a fraccions que tenen apoA-I però no apoA-II. Tercer,
