High-density lipoprotein metabolism and reverse cholesterol transport: strategies for raising HDL cholesterol
A key to effective treatment of cardiovascular disease is to understand the body's complex lipoprotein transport system. Reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) is the process of cholesterol movement from the extrahepatic tissues back to the liver. Lipoproteins containing apoA-I [highdensity lipoprotein (HDL)] are key mediators in RCT, whereas non-high-density lipoproteins (non-HDL, lipoproteins co...
متن کاملThermogenic adipocytes promote HDL turnover and reverse cholesterol transport
Brown and beige adipocytes combust nutrients for thermogenesis and through their metabolic activity decrease pro-atherogenic remnant lipoproteins in hyperlipidemic mice. However, whether the activation of thermogenic adipocytes affects the metabolism and anti-atherogenic properties of high-density lipoproteins (HDL) is unknown. Here, we report a reduction in atherosclerosis in response to pharm...
متن کاملAntiinflammatory Properties of HDL Genetics of Variation in HDl Cholesterol in Humans and Mice New Insights Into the Regulation of HDL Metabolism and Reverse Cholesterol Transport Endothelial and Antithrombotic Effects of HDL
Plasma high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations are genetically determined to a great extent, and quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis has been used to identify chromosomal regions containing genes regulating HDL-C levels. We discuss new genes found to participate in HDL metabolism. We also summarize 37 mouse and 30 human QTLs for plasma HDL-C levels, finding that all but ...
متن کاملAntiinflammatory Properties of HDL Regulation of HDL Metabolism and Reverse Cholesterol Transport In Vivo Endothelial and Antithrombotic Effects of HDL Genetics of Variation in HDL Cholesterol in Humans and Mice
There are several well-documented functions of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) that may explain the ability of these lipoproteins to protect against atherosclerosis. The best recognized of these is the ability of HDL to promote the efflux of cholesterol from cells. This process may minimize the accumulation of foam cells in the artery wall. However, HDL has additional properties that may also be...
متن کاملEffects of Dietary Fat Intake on HDL Metabolism
High-density lipoprotein (HDL) is a lipoprotein which has anti-atherogenic property by reversing cholesterol transport from the peripheral tissues to liver. Low HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) as well as high low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) is associated with the development of coronary heart diseases (CHD). Various epidemiological studies have suggested that the development of CHD increase...
