Pitavastatin calcium (NK-104) is a new synthetic hydroxymethylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor (statin). Animal studies suggest that, in addition to reducing low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, the drug may produce marked reductions in triglyceride-rich particles (very-low-density [VLDL] and intermediate-density lipoproteins...

Familial lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase deficiency (FLD) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by corneal opacity, hemolytic anemia, low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and proteinuria. Two novel lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) mutations[c.278 C>T (p.Pro69Leu); c.950 T>C (p.Met293Thr)] were identified in a 27-year-old...

Mode of action and adverse effects of lipid lowering drugs.

Drugs of today (Barcelona, Spain : 1998)

Eghdamian B, Ghose K.

Serum lipids, cholesterol and triglycerides are incorporated into hydrophilic lipoproteins, which include chylomicrons, very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), intermediate density lipoproteins (IDL), low density lipoproteins (LDL) and high density lipoproteins (HDL). An elevated level of these lipoproteins, except for...

Triglyceride-Rich Lipoproteins: Their Role in Atherosclerosis.

Rev Invest Clin. 2021 Nov 10; doi: 10.24875/RIC.21000416. Epub 2021 Nov 10.

The term "triglyceride-rich lipoproteins" (TRLs) includes chylomicrons and their remnants, very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL), and intermediate-density lipoproteins (IDL). In this manuscript, the mechanisms by which atherogenic TRLs contribute to the formation of atheroma plaques are reviewed. Cholesterol from TRLs...
