Hypolipidemia and Sepsis: It is The Hypolipidemia Not The Statins
To The Editor: I read with great interest the correspondence written by Mathew and Daniel [1], who have the same concerns regarding the potential risks of hypolipidemia [2]. However, Mathew and Daniel referred to the recently published systemic review by Falagas and his colleagues [3], who analyzed twenty studies that examined the use of statins in patients with septicemia and other different b...
متن کاملHypolipidemia: A Word of Caution
Introduction Hypolipidemia is a decrease in plasma lipoprotein caused by primary (genetic) or secondary (acquired) factors. It is usually asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally on routine lipid screening. The first report of hypocholesterolemia in the medical literature was in 1911 by Chauffard and coworkers, in patients with active tuberculosis [1]. Since then (about 95 years), only few dozen...
متن کاملPPARα: energy combustion, hypolipidemia, inflammation and cancer
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha, or NR1C1) is a nuclear hormone receptor activated by a structurally diverse array of synthetic chemicals known as peroxisome proliferators. Endogenous activation of PPARalpha in liver has also been observed in certain gene knockout mouse models of lipid metabolism, implying the existence of enzymes that either generate (synthesize...
متن کاملExome sequencing, ANGPTL3 mutations, and familial combined hypolipidemia.
We sequenced all protein-coding regions of the genome (the "exome") in two family members with combined hypolipidemia, marked by extremely low plasma levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, and triglycerides. These two participants were compound heterozygotes for two distinct nonsense mutations in ANGPTL3 (encoding the angiopoietin-like 3...
