“…Ruelland et al 25 found a far less marked decrease (23%) than that reported by Orekhov and coworkers. Melajärvi et al 26 found no difference between patients with and without CAD, either in diabetic or nondiabetic individuals.…”

“…310 Downloaded by [University of Tasmania] at 14: 33 29 September 2015 Desialylation of LDL enhances uptake by aortic smooth muscle cells, 311,312 but not by fibroblasts or hepatocytes. 308,313 Low sialic acid content in LDL is associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease in some [314][315][316] but not in all studies. 317,318 Alcohol drinking might affect the metabolism of LDL by interfering with its sialylation, but this has not been studied so far.…”

“…A minor fraction of circulating desialylated LDL (5%–10% of total LDL) could be detected in the blood of healthy subjects. In atherosclerotic patients, desialylated LDL levels are significantly increased (by 1.5- to 6-fold) compared to healthy individuals [158,159] and can account up to 60% of total LDL in CAD patients [154]. Small dense LDL particles exhibited a profound deficiency in sialylation rate correlated with increased atherogenicity of this subfraction [159].…”
