      The other half of IDL are modified to become LDL particles (major cholesterol-carrying particle in serum). LDL in turn either go to the liver or to the extra hepatic tissues & if excess oxidized , engulfed by macrophages then embedded on blood wall. *While VLDL and LDL are considered the ‘bad’ lipoproteins, HDL is often considered to be the ‘good’ antiatherogenic lipoprotein. Pathology ...

      High blood cholesterol level is a well-known risk factor for CVD and several drugs are available to reduce cholesterol synthesis. Similarly, phytosterols have been developed to reduce cholesterol absorption during food digestion. However, a potentially safer and effective method involves the use of protein materials that are resistant to gastrointestinal tract (GIT) digestion. These resistant ...

      Cholesterol 7-hydroxylase is the rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of bile acid form cholesterol in the classical pathway. This enzyme is the subject of feedback control. It is downregulated by sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) when the level of plasma cholesterol is low. On the opposite, it is upregulated by the nuclear receptor LXR (liver X receptor) when cholesterol ...

      Statins competitively inhibit HMG-CoA reductase and decrease synthesis of melvalonate, which is involved in the cholesterol synthesis pathway. (9) The mechanism of statin-induced myopathy is unknown but one possible mechanism suggested is due to mitochondrial dysfunction caused by reduced intramuscular coenzyme Q10.(9) Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), also known as ubiquinone, is a fat-soluble ...

    • Cholesterol: Synthesis, Metabolism, Regulation

      Regulating Cholesterol Synthesis. Normal healthy adults synthesize cholesterol at a rate of approximately 1g/day and consume approximately 0.3g/day. A relatively constant level of cholesterol in the body (150 - 200 mg/dL) is maintained primarily by controlling the level of de novo synthesis. The level of cholesterol synthesis is regulated in part by the dietary intake of cholesterol ...

      PURPOSE: Identify the mechanism by which HMG CoA reductase inhibitors, the cholesterol-lowering class of statin drugs, induce memory loss. BACKGROUND: Cognitive adverse drug reactions (ADRs), including, amnesia, transient global amnesia, aphasia and impairment of short term memory, have been documented in association with statins. The damage is ...
