The major Lipoprotein classes are heterogenous. Human serum High-Density-Lipoproteins (HDL) are separated into two major subfractions (HDL2, d=1.063-1.125 g/ml, HDL3, d=1.125-1.210 g/ml) by a simple double precipitation method. There was a strong inverse relation between HDL-Cholesterol (HDL-C) and subfractions HDL2-C and HDL3-C with atherosclerosis. This study demonstrated that HDL-C (P<0.001)...

Background: Diabetes mellitus is the most common human metabolic disease. Chronic hyperglycemia and carbohydrate metabolism disorder accompany with plasma lipid and lipoprotein disorder. Cardiovascular disease is one of the macro vascular complications of diabetes type 2 which leads to high morbidity and mortality. Dyslipidemia is one of the major risk factors of cardiovascular diseases in diab...

Background: The serum concentration of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is one of the important heritable risk factors for cardiovascular disease and is a target for therapeutic intervention. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effects of lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) gene polymorphism rs5923 on LCAT enzyme activity and serum HDL-C concentration. Methods: The study...

Background: To evaluate the role of lipid markers including total cholesterol (TC), LDL-C and HDL-C vs. lipid indices (TC/HDL-C, LDL-C/HDL-C and non-HDL-C) as short term predictors of cardiovascular outcomes in adults over 30 years. Methods: As a nested case and control study, there were 207 CVD events among participants of Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study (TLGS) documented during 3 years of fol...
