Apolipoprotein CIII and atherosclerosis: beyond effects on lipid metabolism.
The prevailing concept of mechanisms responsible for the development of atherosclerotic lesions largely focuses on the accumulation and retention of low-density lipoproteins in the arterial intima and their subsequent oxidative modification. This oxidation leads to activation of the endothelium, and particularly, expression of adhesion molecules that mediate leukocyte adherence and chemokines w...
متن کاملEffects of gemfibrozil or simvastatin on apolipoprotein-B-containing lipoproteins, apolipoprotein-CIII and lipoprotein(a) in familial combined hyperlipidaemia.
BACKGROUND Familial combined hyperlipidaemia (FCH), characterized by elevated very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and/or low-density lipoprotein (LDL), is associated with an increased prevalence of premature cardiovascular disease. Therefore, lipid-lowering is frequently indicated. METHODS We evaluated in a parallel, double-blind randomized fashion the effect of gemfibrozil (1200 mg/day) (n =...
متن کاملThe association between small dense low density lipoprotein,apolipoprotein B, apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A1 ratio and coronary artery stenosis
Abstract Background: Recently, small dense low density lipoprotein (sdLDL) has been highlighted as a new risk factor for the coronary artery disease (CAD).Small dense LDLs are believed to be atherogenic since these particles are taken up more easily by arterial wall. They are readily oxidized and have reduced affinity for low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor and increased affinity...
متن کاملChylomicronemia due to apolipoprotein CIII overexpression in apolipoprotein E-null mice. Apolipoprotein CIII-induced hypertriglyceridemia is not mediated by effects on apolipoprotein E.
The mechanism of apolipoprotein (apo) CIII-induced hypertriglyceridemia remains uncertain. We crossed apoCIII transgenic and apoE gene knockout (apoE0) mice, and observed severe hypertriglyceridemia with plasma triglyceride levels of 4,521+/-6, 394 mg/dl vs. 423+/-106 mg/dl in apoE0 mice, P < 0.00001 for log(triglycerides [TG]). Cholesterols were 1,181+/-487 mg/dl vs. 658+/-151 mg/dl, P < 0.000...
متن کاملSstI Polymorphism of the Apolipoprotein CIII Gene in Iranian Hyperlipidemic Patients: A Study in Semnan Province
Objective(s) The Sst-I polymorphic site on the 3' untranslated region of the apo CIII gene, has been previously reported to be associated with hypertriglyceridemia. The aim of the present study was to explore the association between Sst-I polymorphism with plasma lipid and lipoprotein levels in hyperlipidemic (HLP) patients from Semnan province, Iran. Materials and Methods Genomic DNA was pr...
