Abstract Aim: The present study aims to associate erythrocyte aggregation with plasma lipid concentration. Materials & Methods: Ninety-nine participants were divided into two groups: normolipidemic and dyslipidemic. Lipid parameters were measured from serum and erythrocyte aggregation parameters: critical stress and critical time were measured from whole blood. Data were analyzed using IBS SPSS statistics software. Results: Erythrocyte aggregation was higher in the dyslipidemic group when compared with the normolipidemic group. Erythrocyte aggregation was associated with the abnormalities in lipid parameters, with the association of HDL-cholesterol and triglyceride being stronger than that of LDL-cholesterol and total cholesterol. Conclusion: The strong association of triglyceride and HDL-cholesterol with erythrocyte aggregation emphasizes the role of these lipids in the cardiovascular system.

Abstract DHA, an omega-3 fatty acid, is an important constituent of brain membranes and has a key role in brain development and function. This review aims to highlight recent research on DHA’s role during age-related cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s disease. Animal and in vitro studies have provided some interesting mechanistic leads, especially on brain glucose metabolism, that may be involved in neuroprotection by DHA. However, results from human studies are more mitigated, perhaps due to changing DHA metabolism during aging. Recent innovative tools such as 13C-DHA for metabolic studies and 11C-DHA for PET provide interesting opportunities to study factors that affect DHA homeostasis during aging and to better understand whether and how to use DHA to delay or treat Alzheimer’s disease.

Abstract More than 25 years of clinical trial data have established statins as first-line therapy for the prevention and treatment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. With regard to low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, a wealth of evidence indicates that ‘lower is better,’ although recent guidelines from the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association take a different approach. A variety of approved and experimental lipid-lowering agents may be used as supplements or alternatives to statin therapy in patient subgroups, including those with familial hypercholesterolemia, mixed dyslipidemia or statin intolerance. Strategies to achieve further reductions in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, target high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglycerides or reduce inflammation may help address residual cardiovascular risk, although early lifestyle interventions are crucial to prevention strategies.
超过25年的临床试验数据表明,他汀类药物是预防和治疗动脉粥样硬化性心血管疾病的一线药物。关于低密度脂蛋白胆固醇,大量证据表明“越低越好”,尽管美国心脏病学会(American College of Cardiology)和美国心脏协会(American Heart Association)最近发布的指南采用了不同的方法。在患者亚组中,包括家族性高胆固醇血症、混合性血脂异常或他汀类药物不耐受的患者,可使用多种经批准的实验性降脂药作为他汀类药物治疗的补充或替代。尽管早期生活方式干预对预防策略至关重要,但进一步降低低密度脂蛋白胆固醇、靶向高密度脂蛋白胆固醇和甘油三酯或减少炎症的策略可能有助于解决残留的心血管风险。

Abstract The brain is the most lipid-rich organ in the body and contains 25% of the body’s total cholesterol content. ApoE is the major apolipoprotein expressed in the brain and genetic variations in apoE underlie much of the genetically determined risk of late-onset Alzheimer’s disease. Regulation of lipid homeostasis in the CNS is therefore of great interest for healthy brain aging. The brain’s lipid transport system is built around lipoprotein particles that are similar in size and presumed function to circulating HDL. It is increasingly appreciated that many comorbidities that increase Alzheimer’s disease risk include aspects of aberrant HDL-metabolism, yet how circulating HDL may impact brain health is not fully understood. As comprehending the similarities and differences between CNS and peripheral lipid metabolism may reveal important relationships between cardiovascular and neurological diseases, here we review the fundamental properties of HDL metabolism in both peripheral and CNS compartments.
