Journal ArticleDOI

Role of apolipoprotein C-III overproduction in diabetic dyslipidaemia.

TL;DR: To investigate how apolipoprotein C‐III (apoC‐III) metabolism is altered in subjects with type 2 diabetes, whether the perturbed plasma triglyceride concentrations in this condition are determined primarily by the secretion rate or the removal rate of apoC‐ III is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Imaging of Intracellular and Extracellular ROS Levels in Atherosclerotic Mouse Aortas Ex Vivo: Effects of Lipid Lowering by Diet or Atorvastatin

TL;DR: The results suggest that within lesions, macrophages produce mainly intracellular ROS whereas smooth muscle cells produce extracellular ROS; this may help explain the lesion stabilizing and anti-inflammatory effects of long term statin treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolism of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins in health and dyslipidaemia

TL;DR: An overview of the pathways involved in triglyceride-rich lipoprotein (TRL) assembly and intravascular processing is provided, and how the dysregulation of triglyceride transport can result in hypertriglyceridaemia is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epigallocatechin gallate increases the formation of cytosolic lipid droplets and decreases the secretion of apoB-100 VLDL

TL;DR: EGCG treatment reduced the secretion of both triglycerides and apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB-100) VLDLs but not of transferrin, albumin, or total proteins, indicating that EGCG diverts triglycerides from V LDL assembly to storage in the cytosol.
