Atherogenesis: a postprandial phenomenon.
نویسنده
چکیده
The hypothesis that plasma chylomicrons in persons who ingest a cholesterol-rich diet are atherogenic is evaluated. Evidence is presented that in humans, and experimental animals, chylomicron remnants as well as low-density lipoproteins are taken up by arterial cells. In persons who do not have familial hyperlipoproteinemia, atherogenesis may occur during the postprandial period. Research directions that may contribute to the evaluation of chylomicron remnants as a risk factor for atherogenesis are discussed. Lipoprotein studies after administration of a test meal containing fat and cholesterol are urgently needed.

Apolipoprotein B-48 as a marker for chylomicrons and their remnants: studies in the postprandial state.
Cardiovascular disease has become one of the major causes of death in Western countries. The role of endogenous lipoproteins in the process of atherogenesis is now well established, but the role of plasma triacylglycerol (TAG), especially in the postprandial state, has been largely overlooked until more recently. It was first proposed in 1979 that remnant particles of dietary-derived lipoprotei...
متن کاملExercise and Dietary-Mediated Reductions in Postprandial Lipemia
Postprandial hyperlipemia produces long-term derangements in lipid/lipoprotein metabolism, vascular endothelial dysfunction, hypercoagulability, and sympathetic hyperactivity which are strongly linked to atherogenesis. The purpose of this review is to (1) provide a qualitative analysis of the available literature examining the dysregulation of postprandial lipid metabolism in the presence of ob...
متن کاملPostprandial lipaemia, metabolic syndrome and LDL particle size in urbanised South African blacks with and without coronary artery disease.
BACKGROUND Postprandial lipaemia, characterised by a rise in triglycerides (TG) after eating, is associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) and metabolic syndrome (MetS). Small, dense, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles are implicated in atherogenesis. Little is known about postprandial lipaemia or small, dense LDL particles in urbanised black South Africans. AIMS Assess postprandial ...
متن کاملAtherogenic nature of triglycerides, postprandial lipidemia, and triglyceride-rich remnant lipoproteins.
In addition to low-density lipoproteins, plasma chylomicrons and very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) contribute to atherogenesis. When triglyceride-rich particles bind to arterial endothelium and to deendothelialized areas, locally present lipoprotein lipase initiates triglyceride hydrolysis and decreases the size of the adhering particles. Additional changes in composition are brought about b...
متن کاملPostprandial hypertriglyceridaemia in patients with Tangier disease.
BACKGROUND Tangier disease (TD) is the phenotypic expression of rare familial syndromes with mutations in the ABCA1 transporter. TD results in extremely low high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and reduced low density lipoprotein cholesterol, with normal or mildly increased fasting triglyceride (TG) concentrations. Although there is a close relation between HDL cholesterol values and athe...
