Plasma clearance and biodistribution of oxidatively modified 99mTc-ß-VLDL in rabbits [PDF]
The biodistribution and removal from plasma (measured as fractional clearance rate, FCR, per hour) of native and oxidatively modified 99mtechnetium-labeled ß-very low density lipoprotein (99mTc-ß-VLDL) were investigated in hypercholesterolemic (HC) and ...

VLDL activation of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) expression: involvement of the VLDL receptor [PDF]
The potential role of the very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) receptor in mediating VLDL-induced plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) expression was studied in vitro.

Lipolytic remnants of human VLDL produced in vitro: effect of HDL levels in the lipolysis mixtures on the apoCs to apoE ratio and metabolic properties of VLDL core remnants [PDF]
To determine the role of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) as an acceptor of lipolytic surface remnants of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) in the metabolism of VLDL core remnants, we examined the effect of HDL levels in the VLDL lipolysis mixture on 1 ...

Effects of dietary fish oil on serum lipids and VLDL kinetics in hyperlipidemic apolipoprotein E*3-Leiden transgenic mice [PDF]
Studying the effects of dietary fish oil on VLDL metabolism in humans is subject to both large intra- and interindividual variability. In the present study we therefore used hyperlipidemic apolipoprotein (APO) E*3-Leiden mice, which have impaired ...

Scramblases as Regulators of Autophagy and Lipid Homeostasis: Implications for NAFLD
Equilibration of phospholipids between the two monolayers of the lipid bilayer of cellular membranes is mediated by scramblases acting as phospholipid shuttling proteins that are critical for cellular function, particularly during inter-organelle contact.

Considering the relationship between the extent of metabolic derangement and the disease severity in heart failure, we hypothesized that the lipid content of very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) may have prognostic value for 1 year mortality in acute ...

Intracellular transports and atherogenesis
There is a great progress in understanding the cellular and molecular aspects of atherosclerosis, which is one of the leading causes of death. Yet, there are questions regarding the cellular and metabolic mechanisms that lead to atherogenesis.
