Lipoprotein apheresis to treat elevated lipoprotein (a) [PDF]
An elevated plasma concentration of lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Life style modification and currently available drugs either fail to effectively lower plasma Lp(a) levels or do not result in clinical benefit. However, lipoprotein apheresis is very efficient in decreasing Lp(a) concentrations.

1H NMR studies of human blood plasma assignment of resonances for lipoproteins
Single-pulse and Hahn spin-echo 500 MHz 1H NMR spectra of human blood plasma and isolated chylomicrons, VLDL, LDL and HDL are reported. The comparison has enabled specific assignments to be made for the resonances of individual lipoproteins in the CH2 ...

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.

Alterations in lipid composition of plasma lipoproteins during deposition of egg yolk
The profiles of total lipids and of the molecular species of individual lipid classes were compared among corresponding lipoproteins of plasma and yolk of the laying hen. A close qualitative correspondence was found in the makeup of the molecular species

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 ...

In vitro uptake and transfer of chlorinated hydrocarbons among human lipoproteins.
The uptake, distribution, and exchange of chlorinated hydrocarbon insecticides (dieldrin and chlordecone) and biphenyls (2,4,5-2',4',5'-hexachlorobiphenyl and 3-chlorobiphenyl) among human lipoproteins was examined by fluorescence quenching, gel ...

The physiopathology of lipoprotein a
Lipoprotein(a) (also called Lp(a)) is a lipoprotein subclass. Different studies have identified Lp(a) as a putative risk factor for atherosclerotic diseases such as coronary artery disease and stroke. The physiological role of Lp(a) in humans is still unclear, but it seems that individuals with low concentrations of plasma Lp(a) manifest no deficiency ...

Activation of lipoprotein lipase by lipoprotein fractions of human serum
Triglycerides in fat emulsions are hydrolyzed by lipoprotein lipase only when they are “activated” by serum lipoproteins. The contribution of different lipoprotein fractions to hydrolysis of triglycerides in soybean oil emulsion was assessed by ...

Rapid method for the isolation of lipoproteins from human serum by precipitation with polyanions
Procedures are described for the isolation of lipoproteins from human serum by precipitation with polyanions and divalent cations. A mixture of low and very low density lipoproteins can be prepared without ultracentrifugation by precipitation with ...
