Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidizability before and after LDL apheresis
Metabolism, 1999Oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) plays a major role in the development of atherosclerosis. Hypercholesterolemia has been associated with enhanced in vitro oxidation of LDL, and lipid-lowering therapy reduces LDL oxidizability. In the present study, we investigated whether LDL apheresis performed with different techniques affects in vitro ...

Low density lipoprotein (LDL) binding affinity for the LDL receptor in hyperlipoproteinemia
Atherosclerosis, 1999We measured the binding affinity of low density lipoprotein (LDL) for the LDL receptor in patients with various types of hyperlipoproteinemia and investigated the effects of LDL lipid composition and particle size on receptor affinity. LDL (1.019 < d < 1.063) was isolated by sequential ultracentrifugation from the serum of normolipidemic controls and ...

LDL receptor-independent and -dependent uptake of lipoproteins
Atherosclerosis, 1995The liver plays a decisive role in the regulation of the plasma levels of atherogenic lipoproteins. The primary liver interaction site for chylomicron-remnants and VLDL remnants (beta-VLDL) is still unidentified, while the subsequent cellular uptake is likely to be mediated in concert by the LDL receptor related protein (LRP) and the LDL receptor.

The lipoproteins selections aphereses with LDL Lipopak 400
Transfusion and Apheresis Science, 2013The lipid lowering is one of the main ways to achieve reduction of the atherosclerosis progress. In the rare patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia low density lipoprotein cholesterol apheresis should be performed as these patients usually have extremely high low density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations and these patients usually ...

A New Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) Adsorbent
Artificial Cells, Blood Substitutes, and Biotechnology, 1997Crosslinked O-Carboxymethyl (O-CM) Chitosan beads were prepared by the reaction of O-CM Chitosan with glutaraldehyde solution. Results in vitro experiments with this new developed LDL adsorbent are presented. This adsorbent is capable of cutting down LDL-Cholesterol without significantly affecting HDL and TP (Total Proteins) levels in the plasma.

Lipoprotein correlates of LDL particle size
Atherosclerosis, 2000Correlations of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) predominant particle diameters (PPD) were investigated in samples taken from the San Antonio Family Heart Study. A frequency histogram showed LDL PPD occurs in at least two distinct modes, at about 25.5 and 26.9 nm, with the nadir at about 26.2 nm.

The changes in low density lipoprotein (LDL) composition and oxidizability after LDL-apheresis (LA) using dextran sulfate cellulose columns were evaluated in 12 hypercholesterolemic men (mean+/-S.D. total cholesterol (TC) 9.7+/-1.8 mmol/l). After 10-20 months on biweekly LA combined with simvastatin 40 mg per day immediate pre-apheresis levels of TC ...

Are ‘precipitated LDL’ really low density lipoproteins?
Clinica Chimica Acta, 1987Cholesterol, phospholipid and Apo B levels were determined in low density lipoproteins (LDL) precipitated by amphipathic polymers (Biomérieux kit, Marcy-l'Etoile, France) and compared to those of ultracentrifuged LDL. For 113 sera (triglyceride level less than 4.5 mmol/l, absence of very low density lipoproteins-remnants) LDL-cholesterol values were ...

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects on lipoprotein risk markers for CHD of oestradiol given alone and in combination with the androgenic progestogen, norethisterone. Eighty postmenopausal women were randomly allocated to receive oestradiol (2 mg/day) alone or with continuous norethisterone (1 mg/day).
