Structure-function relationships of HDL in diabetes and coronary heart disease.

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2019
High-density lipoproteins (HDL) contain hundreds of lipid species and proteins and exert many potentially vasoprotective and anti-diabetogenic activities on cells.

Biophysical characterization of the interaction of high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) with endotoxins [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 2002
The interaction of bacterial endotoxins [lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and the ‘endotoxic principle’ lipid A], with high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) from serum was investigated with a variety of physical techniques and biological assays. HDL exhibited an increase in the gel to liquid crystalline phase transition temperature Tc and a rigidification of the acyl

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

open access: yesJournal 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.

Oxysterols in Vascular Cells and Role in Atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesImplication of Oxysterols and Phytosterols in Aging and Human Diseases, 1440, Springer International Publishing, pp.213-229, 2024, Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology
Atherosclerosis is a major cardiovascular complication of diseases associated with elevated oxidative stress such as type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. In these situations, low density lipoproteins (LDL) undergo oxidation. Oxidized LDL display proatherogenic activities through multiple and complex mechanisms which lead to dysfunctions of vascular ...

The Effect of Chia Seeds on High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL) Cholesterol

open access: yesCureus, 2023
Chia seeds are touted as a healthy food capable of providing a beneficial effect on high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. Similar claims have been made for oats in various forms, claiming that they improve cholesterol or are in some way "heart healthy." This study aims to demonstrate the effect of daily consumption of chia seeds, if any, on HDL ...

Isolation and characterization of human apolipoprotein M-containing lipoproteins

open access: yesJournal 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.

Artificial High Density Lipoprotein Nanoparticles in Cardiovascular Research

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
Lipoproteins are endogenous nanoparticles which are the major transporter of fats and cholesterol in the human body. They play a key role in the regulatory mechanisms of cardiovascular events.

The biological activity of high-density lipoprotein fractions and their role in the development of cardiovascular diseases [PDF]

open access: yesТерапевтический архив, 2016
Increasing the human plasma concentration of high-density lipoproteins (HDL) may be part of strategy for control of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). HDL particles vary in their structure, metabolism, and biological activity.

HDL cholesterol: reappraisal of its clinical relevance

open access: yesClinical Research in Cardiology, 2017
BackgroundWhile several lines of evidence prove that elevated concentrations of low-density lipoproteins (LDL) causally contribute to the development of atherosclerosis and its clinical consequences, high-density lipoproteins are still widely believed to

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

open access: yesJournal 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.
