High-density lipoprotein (HDL) is well established as a negative risk factor for the
development of atherosclerosis. Epidemiologic, pathologic, and experimental studies have …

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) is classified as a negative risk factor due to the inverse
relationship between elevated levels of HDL cholesterol and atherosclerosis. The …

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) is a complex mixture of lipoproteins that is associated with
many minor proteins and lipids that influence the function of HDL. Although HDL is a …

The high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) are complex, polymolecular assemblies produced by
the jejunum, liver, in serum, and on the surface of macrophages. HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) …

The formation of the atherosclerotic plaque that is characterized by the accumulation of
abnormal amounts of cholesterol-loaded macrophages in the artery wall is mediated by both …

Although high-density lipoproteins (HDL) possess many features that contribute to the
association between elevated HDL cholesterol and protection from atherosclerosis, these …

High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) have been well established to protect against the
development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. It has become apparent that in …

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) is proposed to inhibit atherosclerosis via a number of
different pathways, including promotion of reverse cholesterol transport and inhibition of …

High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) are appropriately recognized for their many
atheroprotective functions, including reverse cholesterol transport, as well as antioxidant …

In addition to its role in reverse cholesterol transport, high-density lipoprotein (HDL)
cholesterol has direct action on numerous cell types that influence cardiovascular and …
