High density lipoprotein (HDL) possesses important anti-atherogenic properties and this
review addresses the molecular mechanisms underlying these functions. The structures and …

Apolipoprotein (apo) AI is the principal protein component of HDL, and because of its
conformational adaptability, it can stabilize all HDL subclasses. The amphipathic α-helix is …

Many of the proposed physiological functions of α-synuclein, a protein involved in the
pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease, are related to its ability to interact with phospholipids …

Comprehensive, Up-to-Date Coverage of Spectroscopy Theory and its Applications to
Biological SystemsAlthough a multitude of books have been published about spectroscopy …

Exchangeable apolipoproteins function in lipid transport as structural components of
lipoprotein particles, cofactors for enzymes and ligands for cell-surface receptors. Recent …

Oxidative damage by myeloperoxidase (MPO) has been proposed to deprive HDL of its
cardioprotective effects. In vitro studies reveal that MPO chlorinates and nitrates specific …

Accumulation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-derived cholesterol by artery wall
macrophages triggers atherosclerosis, the leading cause of cardiovascular disease …

High density lipoprotein (HDL) isolated from human atherosclerotic lesions and the blood of
patients with established coronary artery disease contains elevated levels of 3-nitrotyrosine …

Not long ago, high density lipoproteins (HDL) 2 were second class citizens with regard to
therapeutic strategies for lowering the risk of atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease …
