Lipide und ihr Stoffwechsel
1996
Die Lipide unterteilt man meist in die eigentlichen Fette (Neutralfette, Wachse) und die Lipoide (Phospholipide, Glycolipide, Steroide und Carotinoide).

Ezetimibe, cardiovascular risk and atherogenic dyslipidaemia.
2010
Ezetimibe is a selective cholesterol absorption inhibitor with an excellent side-effect profile, able to reduce low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol by 15-25% from baseline in monotherapy and on top of statins and fibrates. Yet, it seems that ezetimibe produces quantitative rather than qualitative changes in LDL, with small net effects on atherogenic dyslipidaemia. This is supported by findings from the Ezetimibe and Simvastatin in Hypercholesterolemia Enhances Atherosclerosis Regression (ENHANCE) study on atherosclerosis progression, where the addition of ezetimibe to simvastatin in patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia did not affect the mean change in carotid int…
Effects of statins, fibrates, rosuvastatin, and ezetimibe beyond cholesterol: the modulation of LDL size and subclasses in high-risk patients.
2007
Increasing evidence suggests that the quality-rather than just the quantity-of low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) exerts a great influence on cardiovascular risk. LDLs comprise multiple subclasses with discrete size and density, and different physicochemical composition, metabolic behaviors, and atherogenicity. Individuals generally cluster into 2 broad subgroups. Most have a predominance of large LDLs, and some have a higher proportion of small particles. Small, dense LDLs are good predictors of cardiovascular events and progression of coronary artery disease. Their predominance has been accepted as an emerging cardiovascular risk factor by the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Tre…
Oxidative stress and small, dense low-density lipoproteins: current and future perspectives
2019
Small, dense low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) are more susceptible to oxidation than their larger, more buoyant counterparts and therefore the biological modification of these LDL particles may, in part, be responsible for their atherogenic properties. Kotani et al. found that at multiple regression analysis there was an independent and significant inverse correlation between the mean LDL particle size and the oxidative stress status; notably, the authors adjusted not only for the traditional cardiovascular risk factors, but also for drug treatments. Higher levels of small, dense LDL concentrations significantly contribute to atherosclerosis, and lipoprotein size and subfractions may refine …
ChemInform Abstract: Stereoselective Synthesis of β-1-O-Acyl Derivatives of Carbohydrates: An Application of the Cesium Effect.
2010
Abstract The stereoselective formation of anomerically pure 1-O-acyl derivatives of protected carbohydrates is achieved by reaction of the α-glycosyl halogenoses with cesium caboxylates.
Role of sodium nitrite on phospholipid composition of cooked cured ham. Relation to its flavor
1997
Abstract The role of sodium nitrite on phospholipid composition was studied during the processing of cooked cured ham. Evolution of the different classes of phospholipids in raw meat, cured meat with brine injected at 0, 50 and 100 mg of sodium nitrite/kg meat, and cooked meat, was determined as well as fatty acid content of phosphatidyl choline and phosphatidyl ethanolamine in raw and cooked meat. The major effect of sodium nitrite was observed on phosphatidyl ethanolamine whose content was significantly lowered in the presence of this salt. This effect was observed at the end of the curing process and was not modified by the cooking. The fatty acid content between raw meat and cooked cure…
Interaction between 24-hydroxycholesterol, oxidative stress, and amyloid-β in amplifying neuronal damage in Alzheimer’s disease: three partners in cr…
2011
All three cholesterol oxidation products implicated thus far in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease, 7β-hydroxycholesterol, 24-hydroxycholesterol, and 27-hydroxycholesterol, markedly enhance the binding of amyloid-beta (Aβ) to human differentiated neuronal cell lines (SK-N-BE and NT-2) by up-regulating net expression and synthesis of CD36 and β1-integrin receptors. However, only 24-hydroxycholesterol markedly potentiates the pro-apoptotic and pro-necrogenic effects of Aβ(1-42) peptide on these cells: 7β-hydroxycholesterol and 27-hydroxycholesterol, like unoxidized cholesterol, show no potentiating effect. This peculiar behavior of 24-hydroxycholesterol at physiologic concentrations (1 μ…
ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of (E)- and (Z)-29-Methylidyne-2,3-oxidosqualene Derivatives as Inhibitors of Liver and Yeast Oxidosqualene Cyclase.
2010
The synthesis of (E)- and (Z)-29-methylidyne-2,3-oxidosqualene derivatives is described starting from the C22 and C17 squalene aldehyde monobromohydrins. The conversion was achieved by means of a Wittig reaction, followed by desilylation of the terminal acetylene. For trisubstituted 1,3-enynes, preliminary alkylation with a suitable allyl bromide was performed. A new procedure for the synthesis of squalene aldehyde C27, C22 and C17 monobromohydrins is also described. Some of the new compounds behaved as inhibitors of pig liver and yeast oxidosqualene cyclase and were time-dependent inhibitors of the animal enzyme.
