AbstractLipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is an atherogenic lipoprotein with a strong genetic regulation. Up to 90% of the concentrations are explained by a single gene, theLPAgene. The concentrations show a several-hundred-fold interindividual variability ranging from less than 0.1 mg/dL to more than 300 mg/dL. Lp(a) plasma concentrations above 30 mg/dL and even

Lipoprotein (a): Recent Updates on a Unique Lipoprotein [PDF]
Genetic, epidemiological, and translational data indicate that Lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] is likely in the causal pathway for atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases as well as calcification of the aortic valves.Lp(a) is structurally similar to low-density lipoprotein, but in addition to apolipoprotein B-100, it has a glycoprotein apolipoprotein(a) [apo(a)

Reduction of circulating cholesterol and apolipoprotein levels during sepsis [PDF]
Sepsis with multiple organ failure is frequently associated with a substantial decrease of cholesterol levels. This decrease of cholesterol is strongly associated with mortality suggesting a direct relation between inflammatory conditions and altered ...

Lipoproteins and lipoprotein metabolism in periodontal disease [PDF]
A growing body of evidence indicates that the incidence of atherosclerosis is increased in subjects with periodontitis - a chronic infection of the oral cavity. This article summarizes the evidence that suggests periodontitis shifts the lipoprotein profile to be more proatherogenic.

In this study, we investigate the effect of argan oil consumption on serum lipids, apolipoproteins (AI and B), CRP, and LDL susceptibility to oxidation in type 2 diabetic patients which are known to have a high level of cardiovascular risk due to lipid

Apolipoprotein A-II regulates HDL stability and affects hepatic lipase association and activity
The effect of apolipoprotein A-II (apoA-II) on the structure and stability of HDL has been investigated in reconstituted HDL particles. Purified human apoA-II was incorporated into sonicated, spherical LpA-I particles containing apoA-I, phospholipids ...

Interaction of low-density lipoproteins of serum with hemin*†
The interaction of low-density lipoproteins of human serum with hemin and the nature of the oxidative denaturation of low-density lipoproteins of serum catalyzed by hemin was studied by means of spectrophotometric and ultracentrifugal analyses and by ...
