Effects of superoxide anion attack on the lipoprotein HDL

Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry, 2022
AbstractHigh-density lipoprotein (HDL) is an anti-atherosclerotic lipoprotein. Thanks to the activity of apolipoprotein ApoA1, the principal protein component of HDL, this last is responsible for converting cholesterol into ester form and transporting excessive cholesterol to the liver (“reverse cholesterol transport” RCT). When HDL undergoes oxidation,

High density lipoprotein-induced cardiac prostacyclin synthesis in vitro: relationship to cardiac arachidonate mobilization.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1988
The objectives of this study were to characterize the effects of plasma lipoproteins on prostacyclin (PGI2) production by the Langendorff-perfused rabbit heart, and to determine the mechanism of lipoprotein-induced cardiac PGI2 production.

High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL) Triglyceride and Oxidized HDL: New Lipid Biomarkers of Lipoprotein-Related Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease [PDF]

Antioxidants, 2020
Lipid markers are well-established predictors of vascular disease. The most frequently measured lipid markers are total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol (HDL-C), LDL cholesterol (LDL-C), and triglyceride. HDL reduces atherosclerosis by multiple mechanisms, leading to a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, and HDL-C, as a ...

Isolation and characterization of human apolipoprotein M-containing lipoproteins

Journal of Lipid Research, 2006
Apolipoprotein M (apoM) is a novel apolipoprotein with unknown function. In this study, we established a method for isolating apoM-containing lipoproteins and studied their composition and the effect of apoM on HDL function.

Effect of N-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids on Lipid Composition in Familial Hypercholesterolemia: A Randomized Crossover Trial

Biomedicines, 2022
Individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Treatment is mainly low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) reduction.

Cholesteryl esters in lymph chylomicrons: contribution from high density lipoprotein transferred from plasma into intestinal lymph

Journal of Lipid Research, 1993
Most of the cholesterol in intestinal chyle and chylomicrons is derived from plasma. Our aim was to determine how much plasma low density (LDL) and high density (HDL) lipoproteins contribute to the cholesterol in chyle and chylomicrons, and to examine ...

Thematic review series: Patient-Oriented Research. What have we learned about HDL metabolism from kinetics studies in humans?

Journal of Lipid Research, 2006
Plasma measurements of lipids, lipoproteins, and apolipoproteins provide information on the static levels of these fractions without providing key information on the dynamic fluxes of lipoproteins in the circulation.

Reduction in the concentration and activity of plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein by alcohol.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1992
Plasma cholesteryl esters, synthesized within high density lipoproteins (HDL), may be transferred from HDL particles to other lipoproteins by plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP).

Characterization of human plasma apolipoprotein E-containing lipoproteins in the high density lipoprotein size range: focus on pre-beta1-LpE, pre-beta2-LpE, and alpha-LpE.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1997
We have used two-dimensional gel electrophoresis to separate and characterize human plasma apolipoprotein (apo) E-containing lipoproteins in the high density lipoprotein (HDL) size range.

Antihyperlipidemic Activities of Common Garden Peony ( Paeonia lactifl ora Pall.) [PDF]

Mongolian Journal of Biological Sciences, 2013
We studied different extracts of aboveground and underground parts of Paeonia lactifl ora Pall.in experiment. For doing so this research needs to start up with total cholesterol.
