This result provides an epidemiological argument in favor of therapeutically raising HDL-C levels. One may draw parallels with the detrimental consequences of elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and blood pressure, which have been successfully controlled through therapy, resulting ...
Of course – it is the amazing impacts of dark chocolate that can help in supporting the weight loss process. However, that is not all about this “sexy food”. Dark chocolate can help in improving the levels of good cholesterol in your blood effectively and reducing the levels of bad ...
Briefly, HDL and LDL/VLDL fractions were prepared from plasma samples and added to 96 microtiter plate. 50 µL of the prepared cholesterol reaction reagent was added to each well and the plate was incubated for 45 minutes at 37 °C in dark. The fluorescence was measured with a ...
Once released into the blood circulation, the apolipoprotein SAA mainly incorporates into high-density lipoprotein (HDL), mainly HDL3, but it can also be identified in low amounts in low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL)1,11. As a consequence, SAA-loaded HDL ...

meaning. We tried to answer the existing paradoxical view of intermittent hypoxia in relation to high altitude. Moreover, our study was also designed to understand the effect of intermittent hypoxia at sea level and its after-effects on travelling to high altitudes. We hypothesized that the ...
The current study was designed to examine the relationship between diet quality, as measured by the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) score, and the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its components. The study was cross-sectional in

Blood samples were collected and serum was isolated by centrifuge of blood at 3000 rpm and 4 °C for 15 min. Serum samples were stored at −80 °C until further analysis. Serum triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL), high-density lipoprotein ...
The homeostasis model for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) was calculated via the following formula: fasting blood glucose × fasting plasma insulin/22.5. 2.8. Hepatic Secretion of very Low Density Lipoprotein (VLDL) TG To measure hepatic TG production rate, mice were intraperitoneally injected with 500...
