Hyperlipidemia and arterial cholesterol accumulation are primary causes of cardiovascular events. Monogenic forms of hyperlipidemia and recent genome-wide association studies indicate that genetics plays an important role.

Combined data from LDL composition and size measurement are compatible with a discoid particle shape
The size of LDL is usually reported as particle diameter, with the implicit assumption that it is a spherical particle. On the other hand, data obtained by cryoelectron microscopy and crystallographic analysis suggest that LDL shape may be discoid.

Uptake of synthetic low density lipoprotein by leukemic stem cells — a potential stem cell targeted drug delivery strategy [PDF]
Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) stem/progenitor cells, which over-express Bcr-Abl, respond to imatinib by a reversible block in proliferation without significant apoptosis.

NMR-based quantification of human lipoprotein (sub)classes is a powerful high-throughput method for medical diagnostics. We evaluated select proton NMR signals of serum lipoproteins for elucidating the physicochemical features and the absolute NMR ...

Effect of Early Enteral Feeding on Apolipoprotein AI Levels and High-Density Lipoprotein Heterogeneity in Preterm Infants [PDF]
Background/Aim: We have previously shown that infants receiving total parenteral nutrition have low apolipoprotein Al levels which are associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL) class distributions as in lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase ...

Apolipoprotein E (apoE) associates with lipoproteins and mediates their interaction with members of the LDL receptor family. ApoE exists as three common isoforms that have important distinct functional and biological properties.

Effect of Poloxamer 407 on serum VLDL, LDL and HDL levels of rabbits
Background: Poloxamer 407 is used in parenteral formulations as solubilizing and wetting agent for traditional, low-molecular-weight organic drug molecules and as stabilizing agent for proteins and polypeptide drugs.

The inconspicuous health benefit of blood donation
Background and Objectives: Regular blood donations seem to be beneficial to the health of donors in many ways. There is evidence to suggest that blood donation lowers blood viscosity and alters lipid profile, which is an acceptable parameter for ...

The metabolic inter-relationships between changes in waist circumference, triglycerides, insulin sensitivity and small, dense low-density lipoprotein particles with acute weight loss in clinically obese children and adolescents. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Small, dense low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles are highly atherogenic and strongly associated with obesity-related dyslipidemia. The metabolic inter-relationships between weight loss induced changes in waist circumference, triglycerides,

Separation of lipoproteins by traditional sequential salt density floatation is a prolonged process (∼72 h) with variable recovery, whereas iodixanol-based, self-generating density gradients provide a rapid (∼4 h) alternative.
