Apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins in atherogenesis.

Article Synopsis
  • ApoB is the key protein found in LDL and other lipoproteins, playing a major role in their formation and link to atherosclerosis.
  • LDL contributes to plaque formation in arteries by entering the wall and triggering inflammatory responses through interaction with other molecules, leading to harmful processes like foam cell formation.
  • Research has identified potential interventions to combat atherosclerosis by lowering lipoprotein levels and addressing the inflammatory responses in the arterial wall.

Coronary artery disease (CAD)-cardiovascular condition occuring due to atherosclerotic plaque accumulation in the epicardial arteries-is responsible for disabilities of millions of people worldwide and remains the most common single cause of death. Inflammation is the primary pathological mechanism underlying CAD, since is involved in atherosclerotic plaque formation. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a peptide hormone which role extends beyond well-known carbohydrates metabolism.

Oxidation of lipids, excessive cell death and iron deposition are prominent features of human atherosclerotic plaques. While extensive research has established the detrimental roles of lipid oxidation and apoptosis in atherosclerosis development, the involvement of iron in atherogenesis is not yet fully understood. With the emergence of an iron-dependent form of cell death termed ferroptosis, new attention has been brought to the complex interplay among iron, ferroptosis and atherosclerosis.

Background: Atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) has been recommended as a marker of plasma atherogenicity. The impact of AIP on plaque characteristics is not fully understood.

Purpose: The study investigates the relationship between AIP and coronary plaque features in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

Relationship Between Serum Levels of Oxidized Lipoproteins, Circulating Levels of Myeloperoxidase and Paraoxonase 1, and Diet in Young Subjects with Insulin Resistance.

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).
