Is hypertriglyceridemic very low density lipoprotein a precursor of normal low density lipoprotein?

Journal of Lipid Research, 1985
The precursor-product relationship of very low density (VLDL) and low density lipoproteins (LDL) was studied. VLDL obtained from normal (NTG) and hypertriglyceridemic (HTG) subjects was fractionated by zonal ultracentrifugation and subjected to in vitro ...

Low Very low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol but High Very low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor mRNA Expression in Peripheral White Blood Cells: An Atherogenic Phenotype for Atherosclerosis in a Community-Based Population [PDF]

EBioMedicine, 2017
Very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C), via binding very low-density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR), can induce the development of atherosclerosis.

Discordance Between Very Low‐Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol and Low‐Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Increases Cardiovascular Disease Risk in a Geographically Defined Cohort [PDF]

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Clinical risk scores are used to identify those at high risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Despite preventative efforts, residual risk remains for many individuals.

Resistance of a very low density lipoprotein subpopulation from familial dysbetalipoproteinemia to in vitro lipolytic conversion to the low density lipoprotein density fraction.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1983
In vitro lipolysis of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) from normolipidemic and familial dysbetalipoproteinemic plasma by purified bovine milk lipoprotein lipase was studied using the combined single vertical spin and vertical autoprofile method of ...

Alternations of Lipoprotein Profiles in the Plasma as Biomarkers of Huntington’s Disease

Cells, 2023
Alterations in lipid composition and disturbed lipoprotein metabolism are involved in the pathomechanism of Huntington’s disease (HD). Here, we measured 112 lipoprotein subfractions and components in the plasma of 20 normal controls, 24 symptomatic ...

The inconspicuous health benefit of blood donation

Global Journal of Transfusion Medicine, 2020
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 ...

Accuracy of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol estimation at very low levels

BMC Medicine, 2017
Background As the approach to low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) lowering becomes increasingly intensive, accurate assessment of LDL-C at very low levels warrants closer attention in individualized clinical efficacy and safety evaluation.

The effect of high-dose simvastatin on triglyceride-rich lipoprotein metabolism in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

Journal of Lipid Research, 2006
Statins decrease triglycerides (TGs) in addition to decreasing low density lipoprotein-cholesterol. Although the mechanism for the latter effect is well understood, it is still unclear how TG decrease is achieved with statin therapy.
