The Effects of Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein Inhibition on High Density Lipoprotein Function
… between elevated plasma high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and a reduced risk of major cardiovascular events. HDLs have several potential cardioprotective functions, the most extensively studied of which is their ability to remove excess cholesterol from macrophages. They …

Assoziationen zwischen Polymorphismen lithogener Kandidatengene und Risikofaktoren der Cholesterincholelithiasis
… orthologous genes of the LDL receptor related protein 2 (LRP2) and the bile salt export pump (ABCB11) were tested. Further candidate genes included hepatic lipase (LIPC) in the Lith5 locus and the hepatic HDL receptor (SRB1) known to be associated with serum levels of HDL cholesterol, the major …

The Role of High-Density Lipoproteins and Related Pathways in Alzheimer’s Disease
… that high plasma levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) protect against cardiovascular disease and accumulating evidence indicates that the beneficial role of HDL extends to the central nervous system. There are several important biological mechanisms that regulate HDL generation and …

Prediction Models and Pharmacogenomics in Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency
… after GHRT. At baseline, distinct SNPs of the cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) gene were associated with higher total cholesterol (TC), HDL-C and LDL-C, those of the apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene with lower TC and LDL-C, APOB gene with higher serum HDL-C, and those of the peroxisome …

APOE, PCSK9, and CETP genetic variants as potential biomarkers of dyslipidaemia in black South Africans with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
… a strong genetic component is evident. Apolipoprotein E (APOE), proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), and cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) are key regulators of plasma cholesterol levels. Thus, genetic variation in the genes coding for these proteins contributes to …

Multifaceted Nutritional Intervention In Hemodialysis Patients
… to evaluate the impact of omega-3 plus liquid protein supplement on serum albumin, plasma lipids and other indicator of nutrition and inflammation. markers. The study recruited 63 subjects and they were randomized into placebo+protein (n=32) and omega-3+protein (n=31) groups. The two …

Διερεύνηση της συσχέτισης των πολυμορφισμών των α2Β αδρενεργικών υποδοχέων και της Cept με τον κίνδυνο της υποτροπής ισχαιμίας μετά από αγγειοπλαστική στεφανιαίων αρτηριών
Η στεφανιαία νόσος αποτελεί ένα από τα πιο συχνά αίτια νοσηρότητας και θνητότητας στο γενικό πληθυσμό. Ένα μεγάλο ποσοστό από τους ασθενείς με στεφανιαία νόσο οδηγείται σε αγγειοπλαστική στεφανιαίων αρτηριών (PTCA) με ή χωρίς εμφύτευση stent, όταν η στένωση στο αγγείο είναι ≥ 70-75%. Παρά την …
