The relation of serum TG concentrations and risk for CHD has been an issue of great interest and controversy. Unlike analyses with LDL-C and HDL-C, for which very strong and consistent relations with CHD risk have been demonstrated in observational and interventional studies, those with TG are ambiguous. Thus, TG represents a clinical conundrum: should

Importance Triglycerides and cholesterol are both carried in plasma by apolipoprotein B (ApoB)–containing lipoprotein particles. It is unknown whether lowering plasma triglyceride levels reduces the risk of cardiovascular events to the same extent as ...

The Long Term Kinetic of Plasma Lipids and Lipoproteins in Tyloxapol Injected Rats [PDF]
Introduction: The level of plasma triglyceride is balanced by the rate of secretion into and clearance from the plasma. Tyloxapol (Triton WR1339) is a nonionic detergent that inhibits lipoprotein lipase and hence clearance of triglyceride from the ...

Remnants of the Triglyceride-Rich Lipoproteins, Diabetes, and Cardiovascular Disease
Diabetes is now a pandemic disease. Moreover, a large number of people with prediabetes are at risk for developing frank diabetes worldwide. Both type 1 and type 2 diabetes increase the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Missense mutations in exon 5 of the LPL gene are the most common reported cause of LPL deficiency. Exon 5 is also the region with the strongest homology to pancreatic and hepatic lipase, and is conserved in LPL from different species. Mutant LPL proteins

Ethnic differences in hepatic lipase and HDL in Japanese, black, and white Americans
Hepatic lipase activity (HLA) is a determinant of HDL levels, and a polymorphism in the hepatic lipase gene (LIPC) promoter (C−514T) has been hypothesized to account for higher HDL in blacks and Japanese compared with whites.

Triglyceride Metabolism in the Liver
Triglyceride molecules represent the major form of storage and transport of fatty acids within cells and in the plasma. The liver is the central organ for fatty acid metabolism.

Chemically Modifying Vegetable Oils to Prepare Green Lubricants
Chemically modifying vegetable oils to produce an alternative to petroleum-based materials is one of the most important emerging industrial research areas today because of the adverse effects of petroleum products on the environment and the shortage of ...

The Roles of ApoC-III on the Metabolism of Triglyceride-Rich Lipoproteins in Humans
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death globally. It is well-established based on evidence accrued during the last three decades that high plasma concentrations of cholesterol-rich atherogenic lipoproteins are causatively linked to CVD,

Triglycerides are the major form of stored fat in all animals. One important determinant of whole-body fat storage is whether an animal is male or female.
