This study explores the use of CSL-112 infusions in patients with acute myocardial infarction to enhance high-density lipoprotein (HDL) function. By focusing on improving HDL-C function through ApoA-1 infusions, the research aims to enhance outcomes associated with cardiovascular events. The efficac

Lipoproteins are compound lipids formed by the aggregation of neutral and amphipathic lipids with proteins (apoproteins). They serve as vehicles for transporting lipids through the bloodstream and lymphatic system, acquiring polarity due to their hydrophilic properties. These macromolecules are synt

Plasma lipids are transported in complexes called lipoproteins. Dyslipidemia, characterized by elevated cholesterol, triglycerides, or low HDL cholesterol, is a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Learn about lipid metabolism, dyslipidemia management approaches, and the role of pharmacy p

Lipoprotein(a) levels play a crucial role in cardiovascular disease risk assessment, especially in patients undergoing statin therapy. This individual patient-data meta-analysis from the Lancet explores the predictive value of lipoprotein(a) levels in 29,069 patients across seven landmark statin tri

NDV, a pleomorphic virus, has an irregular spherical shape with filamentous features. Its genome consists of a single-stranded RNA with six genes arranged in a specific order. The virus contains a lipoprotein envelope with short spikes and a helical nucleocapsid core to protect the RNA. The genomic
