Effects of CETP inhibition with anacetrapib on metabolism of VLDL-TG and plasma apolipoproteins C-II, C-III, and E[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2017
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) mediates the transfer of HDL cholesteryl esters for triglyceride (TG) in VLDL/LDL. CETP inhibition, with anacetrapib, increases HDL-cholesterol, reduces LDL-cholesterol, and lowers TG levels. This study describes

Decreases in the serum VLDL-TG/non-VLDL-TG ratio from early stages of chronic hepatitis C: alterations in TG-rich lipoprotein levels. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND: The liver secretes very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDLs) and plays a key role in lipid metabolism. Plasma total triglyceride (TG) level variations have been studied in patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related chronic hepatitis (CH-C ...

Heparan sulfate proteoglycans mediate internalization and degradation of beta-VLDL and promote cholesterol accumulation by pigeon macrophages

Journal of Lipid Research, 1997
Pigeon and rabbit beta-migrating very low density lipoprotein (beta-VLDL) are similar in size and composition, yet rabbit beta-VLDL consistently stimulates greater cholesteryl ester accumulation in pigeon peritoneal macrophages than does pigeon beta-VLDL.

Lipoprotein lipase- and hepatic triglyceride lipase-promoted very low density lipoprotein degradation proceeds via an apolipoprotein E-dependent mechanism

Journal of Lipid Research, 2000
Apolipoprotein E (apoE) is the primary recognition signal on triglyceride-rich lipoproteins responsible for interacting with low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors and LDL receptor-related protein (LRP).

Apoprotein E mediates the interaction of beta-VLDL with macrophages.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1987
beta-Very low density lipoproteins (beta-VLDL) isolated from cholesterol-fed rhesus monkeys stimulated cholesteryl ester synthesis and accumulation in mouse peritoneal macrophages. The apoprotein specificity and requirement for the cell surface uptake of

Socioeconomic Status Modifies the Risk of Gastric Cancer Through Metabolomic Signature: Evidence From a Prospective Cohort Study

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The role of metabolites in the association between socioeconomic status (SES) and gastric cancer remains unclear. This study seeks to elucidate the role of metabolomics in the association between SES and gastric cancer, as well as to explore potential interactions between metabolic signatures and polygenic risk score (PRS) in the context of ...

Reproducibility of stable isotope-labeled tracer measures of VLDL-triglyceride and VLDL-apolipoprotein B-100 kinetics

Journal of Lipid Research, 2007
To gain insight into the mechanisms regulating plasma lipid homeostasis, FFA, VLDL-triglyceride (TG), and VLDL-apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB-100) kinetics are commonly assessed using stable isotope-labeled tracer methods.

Lipid Profile Alterations Across Coronary Heart Disease, Metabolic Syndrome, and Nephrotic Syndrome

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
CHD, MetS, and NS exhibit distinct dyslipidemia patterns. TC, TG, ApoB, ApoE, and sdLDL‐C are key markers for disease differentiation. This study found that elevated TC and sdLDL‐C were key pathogenic factors in CHD. In contrast, TG and ApoB played significant roles in the pathogenesis of MetS.

Progression of Chronic Kidney Disease Affects HDL Impact on Lipoprotein Lipase (LPL)-Mediated VLDL Lipolysis Efficiency

Kidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2018
Background/Aims: Hypertriglyceridaemia (HTG) and reduction and dysfunction of high density lipoprotein (HDL) are common lipid disturbances in chronic kidney disease (CKD). HTG in CKD is caused mainly by the decreased efficiency of lipoprotein lipase (LPL)

Efficacy of omega‐3 fatty acids as a functional food: a multifaceted approach to health reinforcement

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Omega‐3 fatty acids (omega‐3s) are polyunsaturated fatty acids linked with numerous health benefits. Omega‐3s exhibit multifaceted activities through various mechanisms. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) alleviates oxidative stress by lowering reactive oxygen species and improving oxidative stress in brain tissues and acts against neurodegenerative ...
