Very low density lipoprotein metabolism in domestic pigs

Atherosclerosis, 1980
Patterns of triacylglycerol (TG) turnover in plasma and liver, and the hepatic secretion of very density lipoprotein triacylglycerol (VLDL TG) into the circulation, have been studied in young Large White female pigs, using i.v. tracer [1,3-14C]- and [2-3H]glycerol.

Very low high-density lipoproteins without coronary atherosclerosis

The Lancet, 1993
Epidemiological studies have established that concentrations of plasma high-density lipoproteins (HDL) are inversely associated with premature atherosclerosis, but the physiological basis of this relationship remains unknown. We investigated 5 probands with very low plasma HDL.

Assessment of Serum High Density Lipoprotein, Low Density Lipoprotein, and Very Low Density Lipoprotein in Bipolar Disorder Subjects

Pakistan Journal of Medical and Health Sciences, 2022
Background: Bipolar disorder (BD) is a psychiatric condition and is defined as mood swings that alternate between mania, hypomania, and depression. Studies have been conducted globally to assess lipid profile (High Density Lipoprotein (HDL), Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL), and Very Low Density Lipoprotein (VLDL)) for BD with varying results.

Catabolism of human very-low-density lipoproteins in monkeys: The appearance of human very-low-density lipoprotein peptides in monkey high-density lipoproteins

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1972
Abstract The catabolism of human very-low-density lipoproteins was studied by following the metabolic fate of the “minipeptides” of human very-low-density lipoproteins after the infusion of the intact human lipoprotein into squirrel monkeys (Saimira sciureus). The antigenic differences between human and monkey proteins made it possible to assay human

Obesity causes very low density lipoprotein clearance defects in low-density lipoprotein receptor-deficient mice

The Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry, 2007
We have reported that obese leptin-deficient mice (ob/ob) lacking the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR(-/-)) develop severe hyperlipidemia and spontaneous atherosclerosis. In the present study, we show that obese leptin receptor-deficient mice (db/db) lacking LDLR have a similar phenotype, even in the presence of elevated plasma leptin levels. We

Comparative proteomic profiling of plasma very-low-density and low-density lipoproteins

Clinica Chimica Acta, 2010
Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is a natural metabolite of very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) in the circulation. Systematic investigation of total protein components and dynamics might provide insights into this normal metabolic process.VLDL and LDL were purified from normolipidemia pooled plasma by gradient ultracentrifugation with either ionic or non-

Prednisone increases very low density lipoprotein and high density lipoprotein in healthy men

Metabolism, 1988
To determine the effect of corticosteroids on lipoprotein metabolism in healthy subjects, we measured lipoprotein lipid and apoprotein levels in eight normolipidemic healthy men before, during, and after administration of oral prednisone 0.35 mg/kg/d.

Kinetics of triglyceride rich lipoproteins: chylomicrons and very low density lipoproteins

Atherosclerosis, 1998
Lipoprotein dynamics are complex during the postprandial state. A significant rise in chylomicron concentration is associated with increased competition for LPL with VLDL particles. This results in an increased concentration of large VLDL. The concentration of small VLDL is reduced as a result of diminished conversion of large to small VLDL.

Very-Low-Density Lipoprotein in Search of Precision

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1979
Some words are inherently vague. Take "very," for instance. "The use of `very' as an expression of quantity or measurement does not increase precision," writes Roland in "Very, Very Imprecise." 1 Yet, ironically, imprecise as it is, "very" found its way into scientific terminology. It insinuated itself into the classification of lipoproteins. "Very low-

Very low density lipoprotein metabolism in diabetes mellitus

Diabetes/Metabolism Reviews, 1987
The concentration of VLDL and their major lipid, triglyceride, are regulated at many levels from the initial availability of the substrates needed for their synthesis all the way to the function of the enzymes and receptors involved in their removal from plasma.
