The Effect of Eight Weeks of High-intensity Interval Training on Lipoprotein-associated Phospholipase A2 and Lipid Profile in a Male Rat Model of Type 2 Diabetes
Introduction: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) causes hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, and dyslipidemia, which are all risk factors for atherosclerosis. Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) has been recognized as an indicator of atherosclerosis due to its role in vessel inflammation. This study aimed to investigate the effect of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on serum levels of Lp-PL...

I. Description Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2), also known as platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase, is an enzyme that hydrolyzes phospholipids and is primarily associated with low-density lipoproteins (LDLs). Accumulating evidence has suggested that Lp-PLA2 is a biomarker of coronary artery disease (CAD) and may have a proinflammatory role in the progression of atheroscl...
متن کاملLipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 as a predictive biomarker of sub-clinical inflammation in cardiovascular diseases.
Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) is a predictor biomarker for incident atherosclerotic disease. Lp-PLA2 has been identified in atherosclerotic plaques, however, its role in atherosclerosis is still under investigation. Lp-PLA2 belongs to the superfamily of phospholipase A2 enzymes. It is produced by macrophages that appears to play a role in the atherosclerotic vessel wall. Eme...
متن کاملLipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2, homocysteine, and Alzheimer's disease
INTRODUCTION Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) and homocysteine (Hcy) have been linked to inflammation and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Using a case-control design, we examined their independent effects and interactions with cardiovascular disease equivalent (CVDE), on AD risk. METHODS AD cases and controls were from the Texas Alzheimer's Research and Care Consortium study. Lp-PL...
