Organic red wine is a smart choice, but don’t start drinking just to improve HDL levels because overdoing does much more harm than good — both for cholesterol levels and your overall health. 7. Increase Niacin Intake Niacin is a B vitamin that your body uses to turn food into energy. ...
Apolipoprotein B (APOB) is a constituent of unique lipoprotein particles (LPPs) produced in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), which separates the neural retina from Bruch’s membrane (BrM) and choroidal circulation. These LPPs accumulate with age in BrM and contribute to the development of ...
Nattokinase has demonstrated the ability to increase the breakdown of blood clots. Together with pycnogenol, nattokinase was found to reduce leg edema and venous blood clots in long-haul air travelers. B vitamins. Vitamin B12 and folic acid deficiencies cause high homocysteine levels, which have ...
The responsible gene was found to be microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (mtp), a protein essential for the biosynthesis of apolipoprotein B (ApoB)-containing lipoproteins (Avraham-Davidi et al., 2012). Mtp functions non-autonomously and it was found that ApoB suppresses angiogenesis, but ...

Symbiotic flagellate bacteria in the gut can promote the production of apolipoprotein A5 (ApoA5) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in the liver by activating Toll-like receptor 1 in liver cells [52]. Microbial sources of acetate contribute to adipogenesis [53]. HDL is also ...
The potential role of RAGE in the atherogenic process in diabetes has been demonstrated by Park and associates [43]. In the model of atherosclerosis-prone mice due to homozygous deletion of apolipoprotein E (apoE) gene, the induction of diabetes using streptozotocin resulted in atherosclerosis of ...
Similar to LDL, an Lp(a) particle also contains one molecule ofapolipoprotein B (apoB). Lipoproteins that promote atherosclerosis (the leading underlying cause of heart disease) are termed atherogenic. ApoB is an essential component of all atherogenic lipoproteins. ...
added to maximally tolerated statin therapy in patients at high risk for CVD significantly reduced LDL-C by 36% at week 12 compared with 17% for bempedoic acid alone or 23% for ezetimibe alone; similar results were observed with non–HDL-C, total cholesterol and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) [...
