Plasma triglyceride and coronary heart disease. Tập 11 Số 1 - Trang 2-14 - 1991
M A Austin
Although the literature on epidemiological associations between plasma
triglyceride and CHD is not completely consistent, trends do emerge from the
studies described here. First, the majority of observational studies demonstrate
a significant univariate relation, although the results of case-control and
cross-sectional studies are more uniform than those from prospective study
designs. In many but... hiện toàn bộ
Rabbit and human atherosclerotic lesions contain IgG that recognizes epitopes of oxidized LDL. Tập 14 Số 1 - Trang 32-40 - 1994
Seppo Ylä‐Herttuala, Wulf Palinski, S W Butler, Sylvie Picard, Daniel Steinberg, Joseph L. Witztum
Atherosclerotic lesions contain relatively large quantities of IgG. We have
previously shown that both human and rabbit sera contain autoantibodies against
epitopes of oxidized (Ox) low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and that LDL isolated
from atherosclerotic lesions contains small amounts of tightly bound IgG.
However, it is not known whether IgG isolated from atherosclerotic lesions
recognizes epitop... hiện toàn bộ
Hemin: a possible physiological mediator of low density lipoprotein oxidation and endothelial injury. Tập 11 Số 6 - Trang 1700-1711 - 1991
György Balla, Harry S. Jacob, John W. Eaton, John D. Belcher, G M Vercellotti
Oxidized low density lipoprotein (LDL), formed in vivo from presently unknown
reactions, may play a role in atherogenesis. In vitro, transition metals such as
iron and copper will facilitate LDL oxidation, but these metals are unlikely to
exist in free form in normal body fluids. We have explored the possibility that
LDL oxidation may be promoted by heme, a physiologically ubiquitous,
hydrophobic,... hiện toàn bộ
LDL subclass phenotypes and triglyceride metabolism in non-insulin-dependent diabetes. Tập 12 Số 12 - Trang 1496-1502 - 1992
Kenneth R. Feingold, Carl Grünfeld, M Pang, William T. Doerrler, Ronald M. Krauss
Plasma low density lipoprotein (LDL) comprises multiple discrete subclasses
differing in size, density, and chemical composition. A common, heritable
phenotype characterized by the predominance of small, dense LDL particles (LDL
subclass phenotype B) is associated with relatively increased concentrations of
plasma triglycerides, reduced levels of high density lipoprotein, and increased
risk of cor... hiện toàn bộ
Change in LDL particle size is associated with change in plasma triglyceride concentration. Tập 12 Số 11 - Trang 1284-1290 - 1992
Judith McNamara, J L Jenner, Z Li, P W Wilson, Ernst J. Schaefer
Low density lipoprotein (LDL) particle size is inversely associated with plasma
triglyceride concentration in cross-sectional analyses. In the present study,
changes in the LDL particle size of 227 participants of the Framingham Offspring
Study were analyzed longitudinally by nondenaturing gradient gel electrophoresis
at two examinations that were separated by 3-4 years. All subjects had
triglycer... hiện toàn bộ
Mechanical properties of model atherosclerotic lesion lipid pools. Tập 14 Số 2 - Trang 230-234 - 1994
Howard M. Loree, Balint Tobias, L. Gibson, Roger D. Kamm, Donald Small, R T Lee
Structural analysis of atherosclerotic coronary arteries has suggested that
stress concentrations are associated with plaque rupture and that these stress
concentrations are critically dependent on the geometry and mechanical
properties of the fibrous cap and lipid pool. Recent clinical trials of
lipid-lowering therapy have shown a significant reduction in cardiac events
associated with plaque rup... hiện toàn bộ
Long-term inhibition of NO synthesis promotes atherosclerosis in the hypercholesterolemic rabbit thoracic aorta. PGH2 does not contribute to impaired endothelium-dependent relaxation. Tập 14 Số 5 - Trang 746-752 - 1994
Keiji Naruse, Kiyokazu Shimizu, Masaaki Muramatsu, Yukio Toki, Yoshifumi Miyazaki, Kenji Okumura, Hidekazu Hashimoto, T. Ito
We examined whether prostaglandin (PG) H2, as an endothelium-dependent
contracting factor, or the disturbed production of endothelium-derived relaxing
factor, impairs endothelium-dependent relaxation and whether long-term
inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) synthesis aggravates atherosclerosis in
hypercholesterolemic rabbits. Male New Zealand White rabbits were fed one of the
following diets: (1) stan... hiện toàn bộ
Effect of hepatic lipase on LDL in normal men and those with coronary artery disease. Tập 13 Số 2 - Trang 147-153 - 1993
Alberto Zambon, Melissa A. Austin, B. Greg Brown, John E. Hokanson, John D. Brunzell
Hepatic triglyceride lipase (HL) is thought to play a role in the formation of
low density lipoproteins (LDLs) from small very low density lipoproteins (VLDLs)
and intermediate density lipoproteins (IDLs). To analyze the possible
physiological role of HL in determining LDL buoyancy, size, and chemical
composition, HL activity and LDL were studied in 21 patients with coronary
artery disease (CAD) a... hiện toàn bộ
