Who to Contact Overview There are two main lipids found in the blood, cholesterol and triglycerides , also known as serum lipoproteins . Cholesterol is an essential chemical within the body, without it we will die. Yet, if our blood levels of cholesterol and triglycerides are too high, we are at risk for coronary artery disease which is a major cause of death in the United States today. Cholesterol is an essential element contained in all human cell membranes; it is a structural component of steroid hormones and bile acids. Triglycerides are important in helping to transfer energy from food into body cells. Lipoproteins are categorized based on how dense they are. Density is based on the amounts of cholesterol triglycerides and apoproteins. The densest and smallest are called high-density lipoproteins or

The correlation with hyperlipidemia is alarmingly clear: More than half of cases of heart disease are attributable to lipid abnormalities. The goal of this symposium is to emphasize the importance of controlling hyperlipidemia to reduce the incidence of heart disease. Epidemiologic studies have identified a number of traditional and emerging risk factors for coronary artery disease, and modification of these factors has been shown to be effective primary and secondary prevention. However, questions regarding primary prevention remain unanswered. For example, at what age should lipid-lowering therapy be started? In the first article in this symposium, I discuss the known risk factors for heart disease and offer a rational approach to risk assessment and treatment in individual patients.

Lipoproteins Spherical particles with phospholipid, free cholesterol, and protein making up the surface and a core consisting of mostly triglyceride and cholesterol ester. Lipoprotein particles are responsible for the transport of cholesterol and triglycerides in the bloodstream. Apolipoproteins, which are the proteins on the surface, play a crucial role in regulating their transport and metabolism. Lipoproteins are divided into four major classes (which are further sub-divided), based on density, composition, and electrophoretic mobility. Chylomicrons Very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDLs) Low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) Note: "non HDL-C" referrs to (VLDL + IDL + HDL-C) It is believed that Non HDLC is a composite of atherogenic moieties which may predict risk better than only LDL-C or VLDL.

Summary of LDL and HDL function An introduction An increase in plasma lipid is often a feature of atherosclerosis, a condition which affects the walls of arteries and which may lead to heart disease, stroke and gangrene of the extremities. Since the high lipid content of the plasma is believed to underlie these conditions attempts have been made to develop pharmacological agents which reduce the concentration of plasma lipid thereby reducing the probability of formation of atherosclerotic plaques However, the pioneering work of Brown and Goldstein on Familial Hypercholesterolemia demonstrates that there are genetic risk factors involved in this disease. The study of the hyperlipidemias and control of lipid metabolism can be used as a paradigm to demonstrate the power of combined molecular genetic, biochemical and cell biological approaches to molecular medicine. Contents Normal regulation of fat intake To understand hyperlipidaemia involves understaning: Lipid transport in the blood Cholesterol and other lipids are transported to specific targets by the lipoproteins.

Describe the four major types of cholesterol-reducing drugs and their mechanism of action. 4. List one goal of patient teaching regarding a cholesterol-reducing drug in a patient management program. Hyperlipidemia is the leading risk factor for atherosclerosis. The American Heart Association (AHA) estimates that 99.5 million American adults have total blood cholesterol values of 200 mg/dL or higher. Of these Americans, 39.9 million have levels above 240 mg/dL, which is considered high. Levels of 200-239 mg/dL are borderline-high. Differences exist between men and women in various age groups in relationship to the components of cholesterol levels. There are further differences between various ethnic groups. Cholesterol and triglycerides are plasma lipids carried in the blood. Cholesterol is a steroid obtained exogenously from one's diet and is naturally synthesized endogenously by the liver. Triglycerides consist of three fatty acids connected to a glycerol molecule.

Smokers mistakenly deem 'light' cigarettes safer NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - The word "light" on cigarette labels should not be interpreted as "safer," but a sizable number of smokers seem to read it that way, according to a Swiss survey. Among nearly 500 current and former smokers polled, 27% said so-called light cigarettes carry a lower lung cancer risk than regular versions do. And the majority thought that one would need to smoke at least two light cigarettesor four "ultralight" onesto equal the amount of nicotine in one regular cigarette.

Familial Lecithin Cholesterol Acyltransferase Deficiency [General] Hyperlipidemia (hyperlipoproteinemia): Elevated lipoprotein levels in the plasma, which may be primary or secondary. (See also Atherosclerosis in Ch. 201.) The major plasma lipids, including cholesterol (or total cholesterol [TC]) and the triglycerides, do not circulate freely in solution in plasma, but are bound to proteins and transported as macromolecular complexes called lipoproteins. The major lipoprotein classes chylomicrons, very low density (pre- ) lipoproteins (VLDL), low density ( -) lipoproteins (LDL), and high density ( The fate of LDL is unclear: The liver removes about 70%, and active receptor sites have been found on the surfaces of hepatocytes and other cells that specifically bind to apolipoprotein B (apo B, the ligand associated with LDL that binds with LDL receptors) and remove most LDL from the circulation. A small but important amount of LDL appears to be removed from the circulation by non-LDL receptor pathways, including uptake by scavenger receptors on macrophages that may migrate into arterial walls, where they may become the foam cells of atherosclerotic plaques. Hypercholesterolemia can result either from overproduction or defective clearance of VLDL or from increased conversion of VLDL to LDL. Overproduction of VLDL by the liver may be caused by obesity, diabetes mellitus, alcohol excess, nephrotic syndrome, or genetic disorders; each condition can result in increased LDL and TC levels and often is associated with hypertriglyceridemia. Defective LDL clearance may be due to genetically determined structural defects in apo B (the ligand) that diminish the binding of apo B to otherwise normal LDL receptors. Alternatively, reduced clearance may be due to diminished numbers or abnormal function (low activity) of the LDL receptors, which may result from genetic or dietary causes. Genetically mediated abnormal LDL receptor function usually results from molecular defects in the protein structure of the receptorsthe usual mechanism of the genetic disorders described below.

Canine Hyperlipidemia Canine Hyperlipidemia can be a confusing condition and difficult to understand. Compounded on top of this there is limited information available explaining the condition in canines, even in Miniature Schnauzers were it occurs very frequently. It can be a serious, if not a life threatening condition and must be addressed by your vet. I will be giving basic information to enable you to approach your vet and discuss hyperlipidemia and to ask questions, especially as it may pertain to a diabetic dog. Since Miniature Schnauzers are predisposed to hyperlipidemia (and since Tyler is also a MS) my focus will be directed toward Miniature Schnauzers. However, any breed of dog or cat can acquire certain types of hyperlipidemia. It is an important factor to consider and deal with when other diseases are present. With Tyler it has effected his diabetes regulation, has caused additional eye problems and other problems for him. I will discuss these problems at the end of this article. Hyperlipidemia is a condition in which the amount of fats (lipids) in the blood are elevated. This includes both triglycerides and cholesterol being too high . Hyperlipidemia occurs normally for a short time after a meal, then returns to the correct level. However, some dogs have a metabolic problem which prevents the proper cleaning of the fat from the blood stream, resulting in the high lipids. To be clear, there are two other separate conditions; hypertriglycerides (high triglycerides only) and hypercholesterolemia (high cholesterol only). These conditions are not discussed here.
