Journal ArticleDOI

Ox-LDL induces monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation in vivo: Possible role for the macrophage colony stimulating factor receptor (M-CSF-R)

TL;DR: Ox-LDL induces monocyte differentiation to macrophages in vivo and this phenomenon involves activation of the M-CSF-receptor, as evidenced by morphologic, phenotypic, and functional properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lipid and lipoprotein pattern in thyroid dysfunction and the effect of therapy

TL;DR: The change in the plasma HDL concentrations of the hypothyroid group questions the relationship of this group to arteriosclerosis, but complete correction may be related to duration of therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antiatherogenicity of extra virgin olive oil and its enrichment with green tea polyphenols in the atherosclerotic apolipoprotein-E-deficient mice: enhanced macrophage cholesterol efflux.

TL;DR: It is concluded that EVOO possesses beneficial antiatherogenic effects, and its enrichment with GTPPs further improved these effects, leading to the attenuation of atherosclerosis development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Dietary Supplementation of Red or White Wine on Human Blood Chemistry, Hematology and Coagulation: Favorable Effect of Red Wine on Plasma High-Density Lipoprotein

TL;DR: It is concluded that the major effect of red-wine supplementation (about 40 g of alcohol per day for a period of 2 weeks) was a significant increase in plasma HDL concentration which may contribute to the reduced risk for cardiovascular diseases observed in red- wine drinkers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is present in postprandial chylomicrons

TL;DR: It is concluded that postprandial chylomicrons contain PON1, which may function in the removal of atherogenic oxidized lipids and inhibit copper ion-induced LDL oxidation, secondary to hydrolysis of lipid peroxides, a phenomenon which could be related, at least in part, to thechylomicron Pon1 content.
