The dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor sitagliptin, an antidiabetic agent, which lowers blood glucose levels, also reduces postprandial lipid excursion after a mixed meal. The underlying mechanism of this effect, however, is not clear. This study examined the production and clearance of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein particles from the liver and intestine in healthy volunteers in response to a sin...

Individuals with metabolic syndrome and frank type 2 diabetes are at increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, partially due to the presence of lipid and lipoprotein abnormalities. In these conditions, the liver and intestine overproduce lipoprotein particles, exacerbating the hyperlipidemia of fasting and postprandial states. Incretin-based, antidiabetes therapies (i.e., glucag...

This study compared the postprandial triacylglycerol (TAG) response to a high-fat meal in trained and untrained normolipidemic young adults after 2 days' abstinence from exercise. Fifty-three subjects (11 endurance-trained men, 9 endurance-trained women, 10 sprint/strength-trained men, 11 untrained men, 11 untrained women) consumed a meal (1.2 g fat, 1.1 g carbohydrate, 66 kJ per kg body mass) ...

Objective We investigated the postprandial response of lipid markers to a high-fat meal (HFM) with two different beverages in apparently healthy normal-weight and overweight/obese women. Subjects and methods This crossover, randomized study enrolled 36 women, of whom 21 had normal weight (body mass index [BMI] 22 ± 1.8 kg/m2) and 15 had overweight/obesity (BMI 31 ± 3.7 kg/m2). In two differen...

Exaggerated postprandial triacylglycerol concentrations ([TAG]) independently predict future cardiovascular events. Acute exercise and diet interventions attenuate postprandial [TAG] in adults. This paper aims to examine the exercise postprandial lipemia studies published to date in young people. Nine studies satisfied the inclusion criteria adopted for this summary. The majority of studies are...

Patients with combined hyperlipemia have lipid abnormalities associated with an increased tendency to develop atherosclerosis and thrombosis. This tendency may be accelerated during postprandial hyperlipemia. In the present double-blind parallel study, 41 patients with combined hyperlipemia and serum triacylglycerols between 2.0 and 15.0 mmol/L and serum total cholesterol >5.3 mmol/L at the end...

The dynamics of human apoE metabolism were explored by examining the effects of alimentary lipemia and postheparin lipolysis on the plasma level and lipoprotein distribution of apoE. In the studies of alimentary lipemia, fasting and postprandial plasma samples were obtained from five normal adult males, each of whom drank 100 g of corn oil. Although no change in the plasma concentration of apoE...
