Example sentences for: lipoprotein

How can you use “lipoprotein” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • The n3 LC-PUFA alter postprandial lipoprotein production and clearance, and lower circulating triglyceride-rich lipoproteins [ 14 ] . N3 LC-PUFA induce alterations in membrane properties including ion transport, trafficking and vesicular transport, and alter the transcription of genes encoding proteins in lipid biosynthesis, lipid desaturation, and lipid oxidation [ 15 16 17 18 19 ] .

  • It is generally accepted that the hydroxy acid form of statins are potent inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, an enzyme that plays a critical role in cholesterol metabolism, where they block substrate accessibility to HMG-CoA reductase, effectively subverting cholesterol levels of HDL [ 19 20 21 ] . In addition to lowering cholesterol, statins seem to have a number of additional effects, such as the nitric oxide-mediated promotion of new blood vessel growth [ 22 ] , protection against oxidative modification of low-density lipoprotein, as well as anti-inflammatory effects and a reduction in C-reactive protein levels [ 23 ] . All statins limit cholesterol biosynthesis by inhibiting the committed step in the biosynthesis of isoprenoids and sterols [ 24 ] .

  • Identified relationships included: ghrelin with high-density lipoprotein (HDL), alcohol intake, and creatinine; leptin with diastolic blood pressure, smoking, and blood urea nitrogen (BUN); adiponectin with HDL, triglycerides, uric acid, and BUN; insulin with HDL, triglycerides, uric acid, and smoking; glucose with HDL, triglycerides, uric acid, alcohol intake, BUN, and creatinine; QUICKI with HDL, triglycerides, uric acid, smoking, and BUN.

  • Interestingly, the CD36-like 1 antigen (alias thrombospondin receptor-like 1 - CD36L1) clustered tightly with LPL and LDLR and shared with these genes terms such as 'lipoprotein', 'lipid' or 'cholesterol' (Figure 6a).

  • Unfortunately, the other two major CHD risk factors—high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels and family history of premature CHD—were not captured in either data source.
