INTRODUCTION Apolipoprotein (apo) A-II is the second most abundant high-density lipoprotein (HDL) apolipoprotein. We assessed the mechanism involved in the altered postprandial triglyceride-rich lipoprotein metabolism of female human apoA-II-transgenic mice (hapoA-II-Tg mice), which results in up to an 11-fold increase in plasma triglyceride concentration. The relationships between apoA-II, HDL...

Objective: Prediabetes is an insulin resistance (IR) condition. The triglyceride (TG)/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ratio and triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index were associated with prediabetes IR condition which are related to cardiovascular disease (CVD). High sensitive-CRP (hs-CRP) a marker of inflammation that closely CVD. aim this study determine the correlation between TG/HDL...

Aim: Triglyceride to high density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio and triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index are simple, reliable screening methods. It has been shown that the TyG predicts mortality in cardiovascular diseases TG/HDL-C severity of coronary artery disease (CAD). We planned a study define relationship between SYNTAX score, which indicates CAD, TG / HDL-C ratio. Material Methods...

Fatty acids derived from the hydrolysis of adipose tissue and skeletal muscle triacylglycerol (TG) are an important energy substrate at rest and during physical activity. This review outlines the identification of the new TG lipase, adipose triglyceride lipase, the current understanding of how cellular TG lipases are regulated, and the implications for understanding the integrated control of TG...

Guinea pigs and rats are both common animal models for hyperlipidemia studies. However, many recent studies have suggested that rats do not develop hypertriglyceridemia in response to cholesterol feeding. In the present work, the differences in triglyceride metabolism between guinea pigs and rats were investigated. Feeding a high-fat diet containing 0.1% cholesterol and 10% lard for 4 weeks led...

Dietary n-3 fatty acids (FAs) found in fish oils markedly lower plasma triglyceride (TG) and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) levels in both normal and hypertriglyceridemic subjects. The present study examined the mechanism of this effect. Ten subjects with widely different plasma triglyceride levels (82 to 1002 mg/dl) were fed metabolically controlled diets containing 20% fat. The control d...

BACKGROUND Three independent trials were conducted to evaluate postprandial triglyceride (TG) responses in subjects with different lipid metabolism. The effect of polydextrose (PDX), a soluble non-digestible carbohydrate, on postprandial response was also studied using practically relevant, high fat meal interventions. METHODS A total of 19 normolipidemic (average BMI 24.1 kg/m(2)), 21 overwe...

We have previously demonstrated a close relationship between oleic acid (OA)-stimulated triglyceride (TG) synthesis and apolipoprotein B (apoB) secretion in HepG2 cells. However, other investigators studying the association between glucose-stimulated TG synthesis and apoB secretion have reported variable results. The present study was carried out to answer the question: does TG derived from glu...

Hypertriglyceridemia, defined as a triglyceride measurement > 150 mg/dl, occurs in up to 34% of adults. Fenofibrate is a commonly used drug to treat hypertriglyceridemia, but response to fenofibrate varies considerably among individuals. We sought to determine if genetic variation in apolipoprotein B (APOB), an essential core of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein formation, may account for some of t...

Triglyceride (TG) accumulation causes macrophage cell death, which affects the development of atherosclerosis. Here, we examined whether caspase-2 is implicated in TG-induced macrophage cell death. We found that caspase-2 activity is increased in TG-treated THP-1 macrophages, and that inhibition of caspase-2 activity drastically inhibits TG-induced cell death. We previously reported that TG-ind...
