Postprandial hyperlipidemia and atherosclerosis.

Effects of a Novel Selective Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor α Modulator K-877 (Pemafibrate) on Postprandial hyperlipidemia

Postprandial hyperlipidemia, endothelial dysfunction and cardiovascular risk: focus on incretins

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is only partially reduced by intensive glycemic control. Diabetic dyslipidemia is suggested to be an additional important contributor to CVD risk in T2DM. Multiple lipid lowering medications effectively reduce fasting LDL cholesterol and triglycerides concentrations and several of them routinely reduce CVD risk. However, in contemporar...

Metabolism of diacylglycerol in humans.

Obesity resides upstream of the constituents of metabolic syndromes such as diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and arteriosclerosis. Postprandial hyperlipidemia is also implicated in atherogenesis. Therefore, factors that influence the body adiposity and the magnitude of postprandial hyperlipidemia have been intensively investigated. Diacylglycerol (DAG) oil, which is defined to contain DA...

Understanding Postprandial Inflammation and Its Relationship to Lifestyle Behaviour and Metabolic Diseases

Postprandial hyperlipidemia with accumulation of remnant lipoproteins is a common metabolic disturbance associated with atherosclerosis and vascular dysfunction, particularly during chronic disease states such as obesity, the metabolic syndrome and, diabetes. Remnant lipoproteins become attached to the vascular wall, where they can penetrate intact endothelium causing foam cell formation. Postp...

Postprandial inflammation and endothelial dysfuction.

Postprandial hyperlipidaemia is a common metabolic disturbance in atherosclerosis. During the postprandial phase, chylomicrons and their remnants can penetrate the intact endothelium and cause foam cell formation. These particles are highly atherogenic after modification. People in the Western world are non-fasting for most of the day, which consequently leads to a continuous challenge of the e...
