The outcome of a total dietary approach using a wide range of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) enriched food items on cardiovascular diseases called for further investigation. The study objective was to assess the effect of an ALA-enriched food supply on cardiovascular risk factors in healthy males. A dietary intervention (single-blind field trial with pre- and post-measurements) was performed...
The present study determined alpha-tocopherol mass transfer from an alpha-tocopherol-rich emulsion to LDL and HDL, and assessed the potential of different mechanisms to modulate alpha-tocopherol transfers. Emulsion particles rich in alpha-tocopherol were incubated in vitro with physiological concentrations of LDL or HDL. The influence of plasma proteins was assessed by adding human lipoprotein poor...
Conjugated linoleic acids (CLAs) consist of a series of positional and geometrical isomers of linoleic acid. CLA have been reported to beneficially affect cardiovascular risk factors in animal models. In order to assess the role of individual CLA isomers on lipoprotein cholesterol concentration, 30 hamsters were fed for 12 weeks an hyperlipidic diet containing pure cis-9,trans-11 CLA (c9,t11) or pure...
Changes of lipoprotein composition have been mainly reported in conditions of sepsis. This study characterized compositional changes in LDL and HDL during the acute phase response following cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. Twenty-one patients undergoing cardiac surgery were included in this study. Blood samples were drawn before operation and on day 2 post-surgery. In parallel to plasma...
Lipid emulsions used in parenteral nutrition interact with lipoproteins leading to exchanges of lipids and acquisition of several apolipoproteins (apo). It has been previously observed that, during in vitro incubation of emulsions with purified LDL, a variable fraction of LDL binds to TG-rich emulsion particles. The purpose of this study was to better characterize such an interaction. Two emulsions...
Lipid emulsions (LE) contain triglyceride (TG)-rich particles (TGRP) and phospholipid-rich particles (PLRP). Various lipid and protein exchanges take place during in vitro incubations of LE with lipoproteins. These composition changes affect physical properties of particles. The aim of this study was to determine the role of different LE particles and the effect of TG composition on physical modifications...
