概括
一些患有家族性高胆固醇血症 (FH) 的人表现出弹性,尽管LDL-C高,但仍然没有动脉样性心血管疾病 (ASCVD).识别这些弹性FH患者可以改善心血管疾病的风险分层和预防策略.
科学领域:
- 心血管医学 心血管医学
- 遗传学 是一个遗传学.
- 代谢障碍 代谢障碍 代谢障碍
背景情况:
- 家族性高胆固醇血症 (FH) 是一种自体半主导性疾病,从出生开始就导致高LDL-C,加速动脉样硬化心血管疾病 (ASCVD).
- 虽然高的LDL-C是异合性FH (HeFH) 中ASCVD的主要驱动因素,但疾病进展的变化表明其他修饰因素.
- 最近的研究已经确定了一种"弹性FH"表型在HeFH患者中,这些患者仍然没有ASCVD事件.
研究的目的:
- 审查最近关于性FH患者特征的证据.
- 了解导致ASCVD在HeFH个体子集中缺少ASCVD的因素.
- 探索弹性FH对风险分层和预防策略的影响.
主要方法:
- 关于弹性FH的最近证据的文献综述.
- 对耐性与非耐性FH患者的临床特征,并发症和脂质特征的分析.
- 检查基因表达数据与HDL代谢和弹性FH的免疫反应相关的数据.
主要成果:
- 弹性FH患者更有可能是女性,ASCVD并发症较少,HDL-C较高,HDL颗粒较大,脂蛋白较低.
- 一个较低的SAFEHEART风险得分独立地预测了弹性FH.
- 基因表达研究表明,在弹性FH中,有较低的动性特征,ABCA1/ABCG1表达率较高,STAT2/STAT3表达率较低.
结论:
- 一个不同的HeFH患者群体,称为弹性FH,可以在没有ASCVD事件的情况下达到晚年.
- 已经确定了导致HeFH无事件CAD的关键因素.
- 了解弹性FH可以提高FH的风险分层和管理,并为一般人群的初级/二级预防提供信息,尽管需要进一步的研究.

Cholesterol: Significance and Regulation
533
Although not a source of energy, cholesterol plays a significant role as a foundational structure for bile salts, steroid hormones, and vitamin D, as well as being a crucial component of plasma membranes. Approximately 15% of blood cholesterol is derived from our diet, with the remainder synthesized from acetyl CoA by the liver and intestines. Cholesterol is eliminated from the body through its conversion into bile salts, which are eventually discarded in the feces.

Ischemic Heart Disease: Overview
1.3K
Ischemic heart disease occurs when the heart's blood supply dwindles, causing an ominous lack of oxygen and nutrients. This deficiency, stemming from reduced or obstructed blood flow, spells danger, leading to heart muscle damage and dysfunction.
Atherosclerosis, the primary malefactor, orchestrates this dangerous condition. It manifests as the accumulation of fatty deposits, akin to insidious plaques, within arterial walls. As time elapses, these plaques metamorphose, hardening and...

Blood Studies for Cardiovascular System III: Serum Lipid Profile
152
Understanding serum lipids is crucial for maintaining cardiovascular health and preventing heart disease and stroke.
Serum lipids are fats and fatty substances in the blood and are crucial for various bodily functions, including energy storage, cellular structure, and hormone production. Serum lipids consist of cholesterol, triglycerides, and phospholipids.
Cholesterol is a soft, fat-like substance found in all body cells. It is crucial for producing hormones, vitamin D, and substances that aid...

Lipid-Lowering Drugs: Statins and Miscellaneous Agents

Hyperlipidemia, a medical condition often referred to as high cholesterol, is characterized by abnormally elevated levels of lipids in the bloodstream. When present in excess, these lipids, specifically cholesterol and triglycerides, can lead to serious health complications, often involving cardiovascular diseases. Illnesses like atherosclerosis, heart attacks, and pancreatitis have all been linked to untreated hyperlipidemia. This means controlling and regulating cholesterol and triglyceride...

Coronary Circulation
2.5K
The heart, an organ critical to survival, gets nourishment not from the blood it pumps but from a separate circulation system known as coronary circulation. This is the shortest circulation in the body and is responsible for supplying the heart with the nutrients it needs to function effectively.
Coronary circulation begins at the base of the aorta, where two main arteries arise—the left and right coronary arteries. These arteries encircle the heart in the coronary sulcus and supply the...

Lipid Absorption
424
Dietary triglycerides from chyme in the duodenum are mixed with bile salts produced by the liver to emulsify fats. As a result, large droplets are broken down into smaller ones, increasing the surface area for enzymatic action. Once emulsified, pancreatic lipases hydrolyze the triglycerides into free fatty acids and monoglycerides.
These breakdown products bind with bile salts and lecithin to form micelles, which quickly pass between microvilli to come in close contact with the apical...
