Background: Patients are treated with statins for the control of cholesterol; but statins control only low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and not non-high-density lipoprotein (non-HDL). Also, LDL is not a good coronary risk predictor.

The utility of 1,2 cyclohexanedione-modified low density lipoprotein (CHD-LDL) as a marker for the measurement of receptor independent LDL catabolism has been assessed by examining its metabolic properties in cultured human fibroblasts and in rabbits ...

It has previously been shown that lipoprotein lipase (LPL) enhances the binding of low density lipoproteins (LDL) and very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) to HepG2 cells and fibroblasts, up to 80-fold. This increase in binding is LDL receptor-independent and is due to a bridging of LPL between extracellular heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG) and the ...

Human platelets exclusively bind oxidized low density lipoprotein showing no specificity for acetylated low density lipoprotein [PDF]
The widely studied macrophage scavenger receptor system is known to bind both acetylated low density lipoprotein and oxidized low density lipoprotein. Although only the latter ligand has been shown to occur in vivo, acetylated low density lipoprotein is ...

A Role of the Bile Salt Receptor FXR in Atherosclerosis [PDF]
This study reviews current insights into the role of bile salts and bile salt receptors on the progression and regression of atherosclerosis. Bile salts have emerged as important modifiers of lipid and energy metabolism.

Humans and laboratory animals recognize human modified LDL as immunogenic. Immune complexes (ICs) isolated from human sera contain malondialdehyde-modified LDL (MDA-LDL) and N ε(carboxymethyl)lysine-modified LDL (CML-LDL) as well as antibodies reacting ...

Lipoprotein metabolism is the result of a complex network of many individual components. Abnormal lipoprotein concentrations can result from changes in the production, conversion, or catabolism of lipoprotein particles. Studies in hypolipoproteinemia and

Influence of different fat emulsions with 10 or 20% MCT/LCT or LCT on lipoproteins in plasma of patients after abdominal surgery [PDF]
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.

LDL particle size can be measured by gradient gel electrophoresis (GGE) and NMR. The agreement between the two methods has not been extensively evaluated. Therefore, we measured LDL size by NMR and GGE in 324 individuals (152 with type 1 diabetes and 172
