background dyslipidemia is associated with cardiovascular morbidities and mortality. currently, fasting lipid profile determination is used to monitor treatment response. recently, postprandial lipemia is of increasing interest because of its atherogenic and thrombogenic potential and also was found to be more predictive for cardiovascular diseases. objectives to demonstrate postprandial lipemi...

The behavior of apolipoprotein-defined subpopulations LpAI and LpAI,AII within high density lipoprotein (HDL) subclasses 2 and 3 was analyzed in the postprandial phase after a fat load. For the whole group of subjects, increases in plasma concentrations of HDL, principally due to the influx of lipoprotein surface components, were largely confined to the HDL3 density range and involved LpAI,AII ...

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...

Background. Recent data suggest that the renin-angiotensin system may be involved in triglyceride (TG) metabolism. We explored the effect of the common A1166C and C573T polymorphisms of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) gene on postprandial lipemia. Methods. Eighty-two subjects measured daytime capillary TG, and postprandial lipemia was estimated as incremental area under the TG curve. ...

Postprandial lipemia is an independent risk factor for development of cardiovascular disease. Postprandial inflammation following the prolonged elevation of triglycerides occurring subsequent to ingestion of high-fat meals, provides a likely explanation for increased disease risk. Substantial evidence has shown that acute exercise is an effective modality for attenuation of postprandial lipemia...

Trained people exhibit low plasma concentrations of triacylglcyerols in both fasting and postprandial states. Exercise practice is commonly believed to improve postprandial lipemia. In addition, elevated postprandial lipemia is an indicator of poor lipid clearance, and it has been associated with atherosclerosis, insulin resistance, and obesity. Spirulina maxima is an edible microorganism with ...

To examine the relation between postprandial lipemia and high density lipoprotein (HDL) concentrations, we measured the plasma triglyceride and retinyl palmitate responses to 50-g fat meals of 1) 25 men with low HDL cholesterol concentrations (less than 36 mg.dl-1) and normal fasting triglyceride concentrations, 2) 25 men with normal HDL cholesterol (greater than 40 mg.dl-1) and normal fasting ...

background postprandial lipemia has been found to be strongly associated with atherosclerosis due to its atherogenic and thrombogenic lipoprotein changes. this phenomenon occurs even in normal subjects especially after high fat meals. orlistat, an anti- obesity drug, has been shown to address postprandial lipemia after a single high fat meal. objectives to compare the effects of orlistat and pl...

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity in postheparin plasma of 38 normolipidemic volunteers was related to the magnitude of postprandial lipemia after a fat meal, to triglyceride content of high density lipoprotein2 (HDL2), to hepatic lipase (HL) activity, and to HDL2 levels. LPL activity correlated indirectly with lipemia, triglyceride content of HDL2, HL activity, and levels of HDL2 but not of HD...

In 16 members of two Austrian families affected by a missense mutation at codon 188 of the lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene (8 heterozygous and 8 normal subjects), carrier status for the mutation as determined by DNA analysis was related to LPL activity in postheparin plasma, to the magnitude of postprandial lipemia, and to concentration, composition, and size of the major lipoprotein classes of p...
