Fractional esterification rate of cholesterol in high density lipoprotein (HDL) can predict the particle size of low density lipoprotein and HDL in patients with coronary heart disease. Atherosclerosis. 1997;135:205-212.Ohta T, Saku K, Takata K, Nagata N, Maung KK, Matsuda I. Fractional ...
High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL) HDL is mainly composed of protein,lipids, cholesterols, and minor lipids. Its structure functionality includesantioxidant activityand protective effects against pathogens (Yamamoto et al., 1990;Kassaify et al., 2005). Lipid moiety in HDL influence its electron donating...
Plasma levels of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol are strongly inversely correlated with the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD) in populations with normal kidney function1,2. The beneficial effects of HDL are largely ascribed to the role of HDL in reverse cholesterol transpo...
HDL is short for high-density lipoprotein. Each bit ofHDL cholesterolis a microscopic blob that consists of a rim of lipoprotein surrounding a cholesterol center. TheHDL cholesterolparticle is dense compared to other types of cholesterol particles, so it's called high-density. ...
Lipoprotein(a): A Genetic Risk Factor for Premature Coronary Heart Disease Lipoprotein(a) (Lp[a]) can be defined as a lipoprotein particle having as a protein moiety apolipoprotein B-100 (the protein associated with low-density li... AM Scanu - 《Journal of the American Medical Association》...
For close to four decades, we have known that high density lipoprotein (HDL) levels are inversely correlated with the risk of CVD. HDL is a complex particle that consists of proteins, phospholipids, and cholesterol and has the ability to carry micro-RNAs. HDL is constantly undergoing ...
dense low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles and increased apoB-100 to apoA-I ratio. Despite the unequivocal success of statin therapy to reduce major cardiovascular events, considerable residual risk persists in people with type 2 diabetes [2,3]. It is therefore necessary to target ...
HDL high-density lipoprotein, RVE resistive vibration exercise. Full size image In the bloodstream, paraoxonase is bound to HDL, which not only stabilizes the enzyme, but also provides the hydrophobic environment necessary for its function26. Previous studies have reported mixed results, with some ...
Recent failures of drugs that raised high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels to reduce cardiovascular events in clinical trials have led to increased interest in alternative indices of HDL quality, such as cholesterol efflux capacity, and HDL quantity, such as HDL particle number. However,...
The inverse relationship between high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations and coronary heart disease risk is well established. As a result, in recent years there have been significant resources focused on identifying therapies that raise HDL-C and ultimately reduce cardiovascular events...
