Hepatitis C virus production requires apolipoprotein A-I and affects its association with nascent low-density lipoproteins [PDF]
Background/aims The life cycle of hepatitis C virus (HCV) is intimately linked to the lipid metabolism of the host. In particular, HCV exploits the metabolic machinery of the lipoproteins in several steps of its life cycle such as circulation in the ...

Dyslipidemia in obesity results from excessive production and impaired clearance of triglyceride-rich (TG-rich) lipoproteins, which are particularly pronounced in the postprandial state. Here, we investigated the impact of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery on postprandial VLDL1 and VLDL2 apoB and TG kinetics and their relationship with insulin ...

This study reveals a novel crosstalk between hepatic SREBP2‐mediated cholesterol biosynthesis pathway and peripheral lipoprotein lipase‐mediated lipolysis pathway in the regulation of systemic lipid metabolism. Notably, the lipid‐lowering effects of SREBP2 inhibition are independent of a functional LDL receptor, highlighting the potential of acute ...

Selective Hepatic Insulin Resistance, VLDL Overproduction, and Hypertriglyceridemia
Insulin plays a central role in regulating energy metabolism, including hepatic transport of very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL)–associated triglyceride.

Effect of interleukin-6 receptor blockade on surrogates of vascular risk in rheumatoid arthritis: MEASURE, a randomised, placebo-controlled study [PDF]
Objectives The interleukin-6 receptor (IL-6R) blocker tocilizumab (TCZ) reduces inflammatory disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) but elevates lipid concentrations in some patients.

Contemporary Perspectives on Chronic Renal Disorders
ABSTRACT The prevalence of renal diseases and its associated burden on healthcare have tremendously risen in the past few years. From simple markers assessing kidney function, current renal research delves into understanding the diseases at the cellular and molecular levels and not just at treating, but at improving quality of life, arresting ...

Inhibition of miR-33a/b in non-human primates raises plasma HDL and reduces VLDL triglycerides
Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of mortality in westernized countries, despite optimum medical therapy to reduce the levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-associated cholesterol.

Alterations of intestinal lipoprotein metabolism in diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome [PDF]
Diabetes and metabolic syndrome are associated with abnormal postprandial lipoprotein metabolism, with a significant delay in the clearance of many lipid parameters, including triglycerides and chylomicrons.

Regulation of VLDL synthesis and secretion in the liver [PDF]
The production of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) by the liver results from very complex processes that involve coordinated mechanisms of both protein and lipid synthesis and packaging. Alterations in these metabolic functions can cause negative effects on the health of human subjects or animals.

Excessive secretion of triglyceride-rich very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL-TG) contributes to diabetic dyslipidemia. Earlier studies have indicated a possible role for the hypothalamus and autonomic nervous system in the regulation of VLDL-TG.
