Earlier this year the National Institutes of Health stopped a clinical trial using large doses of the B Vitamin niacin to boost HDL levels because thepatients, who were already taking statins to reduce their "bad" cholesterol, saw no added reduction in heart attacks when they added niacin. Nia...

Dr. Nicholls:We have seen that if you infuse HDL, you rapidly regress plaque. And so that tells me that if you infuse it in large enough quantities, which don't necessarily raise HDL cholesterol -- and that is the big distinction here; the concerns with the failed studies have been abou...
High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) plays a crucial role in the concept of reverse cholesterol transport and has many other beneficial properties which may interfere with atherogenesis and plaque rupture. Low HDL-c levels are currently considered to be an important risk factor for the devel...
A number of reports have indicated that both lowering low density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol and raising high density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol can result in significant cardiovascular benefit, both in terms of reduction of events and also, to a variable extent, of atheromatous lesions. LDL ...
and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake). After 2 weeks of diet, the 42 hamsters were randomized according to their HDL-cholesterol and total cholesterol levels and were then treated orally over 10 days with vehicle (n ¼ 21) or torcetrapib 30 mg/kg (n ¼ 21) once ...
HDL removes cholesterol from peripheral tissues in a process known as reverse cholesterol transport [40]. Higher HDL levels are positively correlated with cardiovascular health [41].

of HDL-C is well known, "most researchers ignore this fact," said Henrietta Reicher-Reiss, MD, from Sheba Medical Center in Tel Hashomer, Israel. It is a costly oversight since "about half of heart attack victims have normal [low-density liprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels]," she ...
The response of serum cholesterol to diet may be affected by the apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε2/ε3/ε4 polymorphism, which also is a significant predictor of variation in the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) and CHD death. Here, we test the hypothesis
