Metabolism of HDL and its regulation.
Epidemiological studies have shown that low plasma levels of High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL-C) are associated with an increased risk for myocardial infarction. These studies suggested that by increasing HDL-C levels one could reduce cardiovascular risk. However, emerging evidence from studies in animals and humans indicate that high levels of HDL-C are not sufficient to confer athero...
متن کاملLipid Transfer Proteins, HDL Metabolism, and Atherogenesis
Plasma high density lipoprotein (HDL) levels show an inverse relationship to atherogenesis, in part reflecting the role of HDL in mediating reverse cholesterol transport. The transfer of HDL cholesterol to the liver involves 3 catabolic pathways: the indirect, cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP)–mediated pathway, the selective uptake (scavenger receptor BI) pathway, and a particulate HDL ...
متن کاملGenetics of increased HDL cholesterol levels: insights into the relationship between HDL metabolism and atherosclerosis.
Astrong inverse association exists between plasma HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and incidence of coronary artery disease.1 Although environmental factors play a role, variation in HDL-C levels are at least 50% genetically determined.2 The genetics of syndromes of very low HDL-C have been extensively studied. Mutations in apoA-I (the major HDL structural protein), ABCA1 (which promotes efflux o...
متن کاملImpact of HDL on adipose tissue metabolism and adiponectin expression.
OBJECTIVE The objective of the current study was to investigate the hypothesis that high-density lipoprotein (HDL) influences adipocyte metabolism and adiponectin expression. Therefore, HDL was increased in vivo via apolipoprotein (apo) A-I gene transfer and in vitro via supplementation of HDL to partly differentiated adipocytes, in the presence or absence of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), known to ...
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...
