13. Effects of rosiglitazone on serum paraoxonase activity and metabolic parameters in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Human serum paraoxonase contributes to the anti-atherogenic effect of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and has been shown to protect both low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and HDL-C against lipid peroxidation. We investigated the effects of rosiglitazone on paraoxonase activity and metabolic parameters in patients with type 2 diabetes m

14. Programa de intervenção interdisciplinar em hábitos de vida em indivíduos de risco cardiometabólico: análise de fatores dietéticos associados à melhora do metabolismo glicídico / Interdisciplinary intervention program on lifestyle in individuals at cardiometabolic risk: analysis of dietary factors associated with improvement in glucose metabolism
Introduction: Cardiometabolic diseases are global public health problems with social and economic repercussions. Unhealthy diet is seen as one of the main modifiable risk factors, being of central importance for the prevention of these diseases. Despite the evidence that certain nutrients are associated with diseases, causal relationships are still under dis

15. Differences in synthesis and absorption of cholesterol of two effective lipid-lowering therapies
Effective statin therapy is associated with a marked reduction of cardiovascular events. However, the explanation for full benefits obtained for LDL cholesterol targets by combined lipid-lowering therapy is controversial. Our study compared the effects of two equally effective lipid-lowering strategies on markers of cholesterol synthesis and absorption. A pr

16. Apolipoprotein E4 influences growth and cognitive responses to micronutrient supplementation in shantytown children from northeast Brazil
OBJECTIVE: Apolipoprotein E4 may benefit children during early periods of life when the body is challenged by infection and nutritional decline. We examined whether apolipoprotein E4 affects intestinal barrier function, improving short-term growth and long-term cognitive outcomes in Brazilian shantytown children. METHODS: A total of 213 Brazilian shantytown

17. Prevalence of metabolic syndrome among Kaingang native americans in southern Brazil
The aim of this work was to evaluate the prevalence of metabolic syndrome, diabetes mellitus, and obesity among a Brazilian indigenous population. A cross-sectional study was carried out in 2008 among Kaingang native Americans from the central region of the state of Paraná, Brazil. Eighty two of the inhabitants aged 15 or older were selected. Height, weight

18. Relationship between depression and apolipoproteins A and B: a case-control study
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relation between major depressive disorder and metabolic risk factors of coronary heart disease. INTRODUCTION: Little evidence is available indicating a relationship between major depressive disorder and metabolic risk factors of coronary heart disease such as lipoprotein and apolipoprotein. METHODS: This case-control study incl

19. Oral rapamycin attenuates atherosclerosis without affecting the arterial responsiveness of resistance vessels in apolipoprotein E-deficient mice
The objective of the present study was to assess the effects of the immunosuppressant rapamycin (Rapamune®, Sirolimus) on both resistance vessel responsiveness and atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E-deficient 8-week-old male mice fed a normal rodent diet. Norepinephrine (NE)-induced vasoconstriction, acetylcholine (ACh)- and sodium nitroprusside (SNP)-indu

20. Changes in the hormone and lipid profile of obese adolescent Saudi females with acne vulgaris
Acne vulgaris is a multifactorial disease affecting a majority of the adolescent population. The objective of this study was to test for a correlation between fasting serum lipid profiles and levels of testosterone, insulin, leptin, and interleukin 1-β (IL-1β) and the incidence of severe acne vulgaris in obese adolescent females. Four groups of adolescent

21. Effects of APOE, APOB and LDLR variants on serum lipids and lack of association with xanthelasma in individuals from Southeastern Brazil
Xanthelasma might be a clinical manifestation of dyslipidemia, a recognized risk factor for coronary artery disease. We investigated the association of apolipoprotein E (APOE HhaI), apolipoprotein B (APOB XbaI and Ins/Del) and LDL receptor (LDLR AvaII and HincII) gene polymorphisms with lipid profiles in 100 Brazilians with xanthelasma and 100 controls.

22. Impacto da esquistossomose mansÃnica no perfil lipÃdico e nas concentraÃÃes plasmÃticas das apolipoproteÃnas A-I e B
A esquistossomose à uma doenÃa parasitÃria intravascular presente em regiÃes de climas tropical e subtropical que acomete, aproximadamente, 200 milhÃes de pessoas no mundo. Estudos utilizando animais infectados tÃm demonstrado alteraÃÃes no metabolismo de lipÃdios. Entretanto, estudos tÃm reportado diferenÃas entre as alteraÃÃes observadas nos a

23. Sinalização intracelular e expressão de receptores mediados por LDL modificada e peptídeos da apolipoproteínaB-100 em monócitos/macrófagos humanos. / Intracellular signaling and receptor expression mediated by modified LDL and apolipoproteinB-100 peptides in human monocytes/macrophages.
The Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) may undergo oxidative or enzymatic modifications, producing lipid or proteic compounds that interact with macrophages, contributing to inflammatory response in the atherosclerosis. Into the arterial intima, the macrophages interact with minimally modified LDL (LoxLDL) and with highly oxidized LDL (HoxLDL). Moreover, in the a

Metabolic Syndrome X (MSX) is a cluster of at least three metabolic disorders, among which insulin resistance/compensatory hyperinsulinemia, hyperglycemia, obesity and/or abdominal obesity, hypertension, characteristic dyslipidemia with hypertriglyceridemia and/or reduction of levels of cholesterol in high-density lipoprotein (HDL-c), and other pro-atherothr
