Lp(a)consists of an LDL-like core lipoprotein molecule but differs from other lipoproteins as it contains a unique apolipoprotein(a) or apo(a)(2). Similar to LDL, an Lp(a) particle also contains one molecule ofapolipoprotein B (apoB). Lipoproteins that promote atherosclerosis (the leading u...

Results from the Québec Cardiovascular Study have indicated that individuals displaying three of the numerous features of insulin resistance (elevated plasma insulin and apolipoprotein B concentrations and small, dense LDL particles) showeda remarkable increase in CHD risk. Our data suggest that the incr...
Observing the effects on three markers for cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL or bad’ cholesterol), high density lipoprotein (HDL or good cholesterol) and apolipoprotein B, a specific protein found in bad cholesterol that clogs arteries, they concluded that just substituting one or two meat...

More than one-third of American adults are obese and statistics are similar worldwide. Caloric intake and diet composition have large and lasting effects on cognition and emotion, especially during critical periods in development, but the neural mechanis
HDL is actually more complex than we once thought. Rather than being a single kind of particle, HDL is is now considered a family of different particles. All HDL contains lipids (fats), cholesterol and proteins (called apolipoproteins), but some types of HDL are spherical while others are ...
