New Biotechnological Treatments for Lipid Disorders

Abstract: Disorders of lipid and lipoprotein metabolism play a central role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Despite the widespread use of efficacious lipid-modifying therapies, the residual risk of CVD remains unacceptably high. The purpose of this manuscript is to review the application of new technologies in the treatment of lipid disorders. New therapies work mostly at the gene expression level and are, therefore, different from traditional small-molecule drugs that work mainly … Show more

“…This agent seems to be safer and slightly more effective for reducing plasma triglycerides and apoB levels than fenofibrate. The PROMINENT trial will assess the effect of pemafibrate to reduce the incidence of cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes 46 .…”

“…Se debe proteger, por tanto, la posibilidad de su utilización amplia, por lo menos en investigación, en países que no pueden asumir los costos aparejados a las patentes. En el área clínica ha habido también autores colombianos que indican posibles aplicaciones y ventajas de CRISPR-Cas9, como Valencia Enciso y Mendivil (56), quienes señalan que algunos modelos de modificación genética podrían usarse para el tratamiento de trastornos lipídicos, que pueden disminuir el riesgo de enfermedades cardiovasculares. Por otro lado, Montaño et al (57) señalan que la edición genética por medio de CRISP-Cas9 podría ser una oportunidad para entender los cambios genéticos involucrados en la patogénesis de la leucemia linfoblástica aguda, y que son responsables de recaídas o resistencias a tratamientos.…”
