Oléagineux, Corps gras, Lipides, 2002 It is generally accepted that cholesterol-rich low density lipoproteins are more significantly associated with atherosclerotic disease than triglyceride-rich very low density lipoproteins. This paper addresses two aspects of the atherogenic potentials of

Geometric and Electromagnetic Aspects of Fusion Pore Making [PDF]
Systems Biology 2 (2011), pp. 505-538, 2009 For regulated exocytosis, we model the morphology and dynamics of the making of the fusion pore or porosome as a cup-shaped lipoprotein structure (a dimple or pit) on the cytosol side of the plasma membrane. We describe the forming of the dimple by a free boundary problem.

The physiopathology of lipoprotein a
Frontiers in Bioscience, 2010 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 ...

Influence of different fat emulsions with 10 or 20% MCT/LCT or LCT on lipoproteins in plasma of patients after abdominal surgery [PDF]
, 1998 In patients after elective abdominal surgery, different fat emulsions were used to compare their efficacy in total parenteral nutrition and in normalizing plasma lipoprotein levels.

A new lipid-structured model to investigate the opposing effects of LDL and HDL on atherosclerotic plaque macrophages [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Atherosclerotic plaques form in artery walls due to a chronic inflammatory response driven by lipid accumulation. A key component of the inflammatory response is the interaction between monocyte-derived macrophages and extracellular lipid. Although concentrations of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles in the blood

Alterations of intestinal lipoprotein metabolism in diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome [PDF]
, 2015 Diabetes and metabolic syndrome are associated with abnormal postprandial lipoprotein metabolism, with a significant delay in the clearance of many lipid parameters, including triglycerides and chylomicrons.

Ramadan Fasting Model Exerts Hepatoprotective, Anti-obesity, and Anti-Hyperlipidemic Effects in an Experimentally-induced Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver in Rats [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Background: The epidemic of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and its metabolic effects present a serious public health concern. We hypothesized that the Ramadan fasting model (RFM), which involves fasting from dawn to dusk for a month, could provide potential therapeutic benefits and mitigate NAFLD.

Oxidized low-density lipoprotein inhibits hepatitis C virus cell entry in human hepatoma cells. [PDF]
, 2006 Cell entry of hepatitis C virus, pseudoparticles (HCVpp) and cell culture grown virus (HCVcc), requires the interaction of viral glycoproteins with CD81 and other as yet unknown cellular factors.

Biophysicochemical interaction of a clinical pulmonary surfactant with nano-alumina [PDF]
Langmuir 31 (26) 7346 - 7354 (2015), 2015 We report on the interaction of pulmonary surfactant composed of phospholipids and proteins with nanometric alumina (Al2O3) in the context of lung exposure and nanotoxicity. We study the bulk properties of phospholipid/nanoparticle dispersions and determine the nature of their interactions.

Hepatitis C virus production requires apolipoprotein A-I and affects its association with nascent low-density lipoproteins [PDF]
, 2011 Background/aims The life cycle of hepatitis C virus (HCV) is intimately linked to the lipid metabolism of the host. In particular, HCV exploits the metabolic machinery of the lipoproteins in several steps of its life cycle such as circulation in the ...
