Effect of Cigarette Smoking on Blood Levels of Lipid and Atherogenic Lipid Ratios [PDF]
Introduction: Lipid profile changes are a major risk factor for the cardiovascular diseases with the increase in sedentary life style and smoking. Smoking may lead to alter the normal plasma lipoprotein pattern.

Cold-burst method for nanoparticle formation with natural triglyceride oils [PDF]
Preparation of nanoemulsions of triglyceride oils in water usually requires high mechanical energy and sophisticated equipment. Recently, we showed that alpha-to-beta (viz. gel-to-crystal) phase transition, observed with most lipid substances (triglycerides, diglycerides, phospholipids, alkanes, etc.), may cause spontaneous disintegration of micro ...

Polymorphic phase transitions in bulk triglyceride mixtures [PDF]
Triacylglycerols (TAGs) are among the most important ingredients in food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical products. Many physical properties of such products, incl. morphology, texture and rheology, are determined by the phase behaviour of the included TAGs. Triglycerides are also of special interest for the production of solid lipid nanoparticles, applied

Lysosomal acid lipase promotes endothelial proliferation in cold-activated adipose tissue
Oxidative tissues such as brown adipose tissue and muscle internalize large amounts of circulating lipids and glucose as energy source. Endothelial cells (ECs) provide a platform for regulated transport and processing of blood-borne nutrients.

A Cross-sectional Study of Atherogenic Index of Plasma and Angiographic Profile by Gensini Score in patients of Acute Coronary Syndrome [PDF]
Introduction: Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. India has the highest burden of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). Atherogenesis is a multifactorial process, abnormalities in lipoprotein metabolism especially elevated

Triglyceride deposit cardiomyovasculopathy: a rare cardiovascular disorder
Triglyceride deposit cardiomyovasculopathy (TGCV) is a phenotype primarily reported in patients carrying genetic mutations in PNPLA2 encoding adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) which releases long chain fatty acid (LCFA) as a major energy source by the ...

Genetics of Hypertriglyceridemia
Hypertriglyceridemia, a commonly encountered phenotype in cardiovascular and metabolic clinics, is surprisingly complex. A range of genetic variants, from single-nucleotide variants to large-scale copy number variants, can lead to either the severe or ...
