Background And Objectives: Oxidized HDL (oxHDL) may behave as proinflammatory HDL because of reduced anti-inflammatory capacity and is considered a risk factor for mortality in patients on maintenance hemodialysis (MHD). The study presented here assessed the effect of oxHDL on protein-energy wasting (PEW) in MHD patients.
Design, Setting, Participants, & Measurements: This prospective study examined a cohort of MHD patients (n = 176) who were not taking lipid-lowering drugs. Blood samples were obtained to measure albumin, lipids, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), oxidized LDL (oxLDL), and oxHDL. PEW was assessed by subjective global assessment (SGA) and geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI). Measurements and assessment of nutritional status were followed up 1 year later.
Results: OxHDL was significantly increased in patients with PEW at baseline. High oxHDL and high hsCRP were significantly associated with PEW, and receiver operating characteristic curves for oxHDL and hsCRP showed statistically similar accuracy for predicting SGA-positive status. According to multivariate regression models, high oxHDL had a significant influence on PEW in patients, particularly those with high hsCRP. Decreased changes in GNRI and high prevalence of SGA-positive status at 1 year were more common in patients with high oxHDL at baseline and 1 year later than in patients with low oxHDL at both time points.
Conclusions: A high oxHDL state may be associated with PEW estimated by GNRI and SGA, particularly concomitant with inflammation in MHD patients.

Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the most prevalent cardiovascular diseases where serum lipoprotein oxidation plays a significant role. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) n-6 : n-3 unbalance ratio consumption, affects lipoprotein oxidation, and inflammation processes. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between n-6 : n-3 PUFA ratio intake with oxidized lipoproteins in individuals with CAD.

Background: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is increasingly common in the pediatric population and may increase risk for developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) in people with MASLD. Oxidized high-density lipoprotein (oxHDL) and oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) are modified, pro-atherosclerotic lipoproteins that are increased in adults with MASLD and CVD but have not been reported in adolescents with MASLD.
Purpose: To determine if oxLDL and oxHDL are increased in adolescents with MASLD.

Oxidized low-density lipoproteins (ox-LDLs) are involved in atherosclerotic plaque formation and progression and have been linked to insulin resistance (IR). Myeloperoxidase is a potent oxidant of lipoproteins related to atherogenic risk. High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) are considered antioxidants due to their association with paraoxonase 1 (PON1).

Article Synopsis
- High-density lipoprotein (HDL) usually protects against cardiovascular issues, but oxidized HDL (ox-HDL) can harm vascular health, particularly the endothelial function, and its interaction with mitochondrial function and hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) remains unclear.
- Researchers simulated endothelial damage in human umbilical vein cells (HUVECs) using ox-HDL and tested the effects of a hydrogen sulfide donor, AP39, to see if it could prevent damage and improve mitochondrial function.
- Results showed that AP39 reduced the negative impacts of ox-HDL by increasing SIRT1 expression, which is linked to better endothelial health, while ox-HDL led to lowered cell viability and increased inflammatory markers within the endothelial cells

Purpose: To determine the relationship between serum total testosterone (TT) levels and oxidative stress indices in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and to investigate the effect of oxidative stress on androgen synthesis and its mechanism in rat ovarian theca-interstitial (T-I) cells.
Methods: Clinical, hormonal, metabolic, and oxidative stress parameters were analyzed in a cross-sectional case-control study including 626 patients with PCOS and 296 controls. The effects of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) and oxidized high-density lipoprotein (ox-HDL) on cell proliferation, TT secretion, and expression of key enzymes involved in testosterone synthesis were evaluated in T-I cells.
