Determinants of Achieved LDL Cholesterol and “Non-HDL” Cholesterol in the Management of Dyslipidemias

Chris J. Packard

Abstract: Clinical trials of agents that, when added to statins, generate profound LDL lowering have been successful in reducing further the risk of cardiovascular disease. LDL cholesterol can be now decreased to unprecedented levels, so the focus of attention then shifts to other apolipoprotein B-containing, atherogenic lipoprotein classes such as lipoprotein(a) and remnants of the metabolism of triglyceride-rich particles. "Non-HDL cholesterol" is used increasingly (especially if measured in the non-fasting state) as … Show more

“…28 Statins cause substantial falls in LDL and a relatively modest decrease in TGLs, including VLDL and RLP. 29,30 Our previous in vitro studies showed that RLP induced expression of endothelial proatherogenic molecules and endothelial vasomotor dysfunction to a several-fold greater extent compared with LDL or other TGLs. 31,32 As RLP had greater atherogenicity than other TGLs, RLP-C levels remained a predictor of CVEs despite the reduction in RLP-C levels on statin treatment.…”

“…We speculated that the significant increases in LysoPC and LysoPE intensities in group D observed in this study may be related to enhanced PLA2 activity. [39] Studies have shown that quercetin can inhibit PLA2 activity. [40,41] In this study, the changes in the activity of PLA2 and the intensities of LysoPC, LysoPE indicate that cadmium affected lipid metabolism and high doses of quercetin exert a protective effect against cadmium-induced lipid metabolism disorders.…”

“…In this context, while regarding LDL-C as the major target, the exploration of residual risk factors, such as RLP-C, can also provide complementary therapeutic strategies for reducing cardiovascular risk. Previous reports showed that lipid-lowering agents, such as brates, ezetimibe, and statins, as well as diet adaptation, proper aerobic exercise, and obesity reduction, may effectively decrease RLP-C levels to varying degrees [26,43,44], thus enabling RLP-C as a therapeutic target. Clinical trials of non-statin, lipid-lowering treatments have shown signi cant bene t in reducing residual risk, but none have speci cally targeted RLP-C. Studies have demonstrated that omega-3 fatty acid derivatives [45] and antisense oligonucleotide to apolipoprotein C-III [46] have the potential to reduce TRLs signi cantly and provide useful tools for answering this question.…”
