Enhanced Cellular Uptake of Remnant High-Density Lipoprotein Particles

A low level of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol is characteristic of insulin resistance and hypertriglyceridemia and likely contributes to the increased risk of cardiovascular disease associated with these conditions. One pathway involves enhanced clearance of lipolytically modified HDL particles, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we examine the effect of triglyceride enrichment and hepatic lipase …
