Apolipoprotein E and Atherosclerosis: From Lipoprotein Metabolism to MicroRNA Control of Inflammation. [PDF]
Apolipoprotein (apo) E stands out among plasma apolipoproteins through its unprecedented ability to protect against atherosclerosis. Although best recognized for its ability to mediate plasma lipoprotein clearance in the liver and protect against ...

Phospholipid transfer protein gene knock-out (Pltp KO) mice have defective transfer of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) phospholipids into high density lipoprotein (HDL) and markedly decreased HDL levels (Jiang et al. 1999. J. Clin. Invest.

Application of non-HDL cholesterol for population-based cardiovascular risk stratification: results from the Multinational Cardiovascular Risk Consortium. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The relevance of blood lipid concentrations to long-term incidence of cardiovascular disease and the relevance of lipid-lowering therapy for cardiovascular disease outcomes is unclear.

Roles of reconstituted high-density lipoprotein nanoparticles in cardiovascular disease: A new paradigm for drug discovery [PDF]
Epidemiological results revealed that there is an inverse correlation between high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels and risks of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD).

Nascent high density lipoproteins from liver perfusates of orotic acid-fed rats.
Uniformly fatty livers from orotic acid-fed rats secreted almost no very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) but normal amounts of nascent high density lipoproteins (HDL) accumulated in perfusates.

The cholesterol-raising diterpenes from coffee beans increase serum lipid transfer protein activity levels in humans [PDF]
Cafestol and kahweol–diterpenes present in unfiltered coffee— strongly raise serum VLDL and LDL cholesterol and slightly reduce HDL cholesterol in humans. The mechanism of action is unknown.

Molecular simulation of discoidal HDL lipoprotein particles
High-density lipoprotein (HDL) has been determined to play an essential role as an atheroprotective in atherosclerosis – the thickening and hardening of arteries. HDL particles are important delivery vehicles in the reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) pathway wherein excess cholesterol is removed from peripheral tissues and transported to the liver for
