Assembly and secretion of hepatic very-low-density lipoprotein [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1990
In contrast to water-soluble fuels such as glucose or ketone bodies, the use of lipids as an energy source for tissues has required the development of complex structures for their transport through the aqueous plasma. In the case of endogenously synthesized triacylglycerol this is achieved by the assembly and secretion of hepatic VLDL which provides ...

Conversion of very low density lipoprotein to low density lipoprotein. A metabolic study of apolipoprotein B kinetics in human subjects.

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 1975
The interrelationship between apolipoprotein B in very low density lipoprotein (VLDL-B) and in low density lipoprotein (LDL-B) was studied in seven normal and hyperlipidemic men and women, with purified radioiodinated VLDL.

Aqueous Bark Extract of Terminalia Arjuna Protects Against Cigarette Smoke-induced Alterations in Serum Lipid Profile of Albino Rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The present study aimed to evaluate the protective effect of aqueous bark extract of Terminalia arjuna against cigarette smoke-induced changes in serum lipid profile of albino rats. The rats were divided into three groups.

Oxysterols in Vascular Cells and Role in Atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesImplication of Oxysterols and Phytosterols in Aging and Human Diseases, 1440, Springer International Publishing, pp.213-229, 2024, Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology
Atherosclerosis is a major cardiovascular complication of diseases associated with elevated oxidative stress such as type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. In these situations, low density lipoproteins (LDL) undergo oxidation. Oxidized LDL display proatherogenic activities through multiple and complex mechanisms which lead to dysfunctions of vascular ...

Homozygous deletion of the very low density lipoprotein receptor gene causes autosomal recessive cerebellar hypoplasia with cerebral gyral simplification.

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Human Genetics, 2005
An autosomal recessive syndrome of nonprogressive cerebellar ataxia and mental retardation is associated with inferior cerebellar hypoplasia and mild cerebral gyral simplification in the Hutterite population. An identity-by-descent mapping approach using

Relationship of Serum Low-Density Lipoproteins and Very Low-Density Lipoproteins to the Android Fat Pattern of Adult Males [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
This study was designed to further substantiate previous associations found between the android pattern of fat distribution and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and very-low density lipoprotein cholesterol in adult ...

Effect of an anti-lipoprotein lipase serum on plasma triglyceride removal

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1976
Anti-lipoprotein lipase sera injected intravenously in roosters blocked quantitatively the catabolism of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) triglyceride.

Normal plasma lipoproteins and fertility in gene-targeted mice homozygous for a disruption in the gene encoding very low density lipoprotein receptor.

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1995
The very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) receptor is a recently cloned member of the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor family that mediates the binding and uptake of VLDL when overexpressed in animal cells. Its sequence is 94% identical in humans and

Debiased Inference on Heterogeneous Quantile Treatment Effects with Regression Rank-Scores [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Understanding treatment effect heterogeneity is vital to many scientific fields because the same treatment may affect different individuals differently. Quantile regression provides a natural framework for modeling such heterogeneity. We propose a new method for inference on heterogeneous quantile treatment effects in the presence of high-dimensional ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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.
