Very Low Density Lipoprotein (VLDL)
Triglyceride (TG) or more accurately triacylglycerol is simply a compound of three acyl groups (fatty acids) attached to a glycerol molecule. They are easily measured in the laboratory and reported as serum TG level: it actually refers to all of the TG that are being trafficked within all of the lipoproteins that exist in a deciliter of plasma. A physiologic fasting TG concentration is on avera...
متن کاملSubclasses of low-density lipoprotein and very low-density lipoprotein in familial combined hyperlipidemia: relationship to multiple lipoprotein phenotype.
OBJECTIVE The present study addresses the presence of distinct metabolic phenotypes in familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL) in relation to small dense low-density lipoprotein (sd LDL) and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) subclasses. METHODS AND RESULTS Hyperlipidemic FCHL relatives (n=72) were analyzed for LDL size by gradient gel electrophoresis. Pattern B LDL (sd LDL, particle size <2...
متن کاملCatabolism of very low density lipoprotein B apoprotein in man.
The turnover and the catabolic fate of the B apoprotein of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL-B) was studied in 15 normal and hyperlipidemic subjects using reinjected autologous VLDL labeled with radioiodine. The specific radioactivity-time curve of the B apoprotein in total VLDL (S(f)20-400) was multiexponential but conformed to a two-pool model during the first 48 h of catabolism. The flux wa...
متن کاملDietary fish oil increases conversion of very low density lipoprotein apoprotein B to low density lipoprotein.
Dietary fish oils, which are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, are known to produce a marked lowering of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) triglyceride concentrations, but they have a less marked effect on low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. Our previous apolipoprotein (apo) B kinetic studies in miniature pigs demonstrated that conversion of VLDL apo B to LDL apo B accounted for 15% to 20% ...
متن کاملVery low-density lipoprotein (VLDL)-induced signals mediating aldosterone production.
Aldosterone, secreted by the adrenal zona glomerulosa, enhances sodium retention, thus increasing blood volume and pressure. Excessive production of aldosterone results in high blood pressure and contributes to cardiovascular and renal disease, stroke and visual loss. Hypertension is also associated with obesity, which is correlated with other serious health risks as well. Although weight gain ...
