The Future of Lipid-Lowering Therapy

Abstract: The recent introduction of inhibitors of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin 9 to lower low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol on top of statins or as monotherapy is rapidly changing the landscape of treatment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). However, existing lipid-lowering drugs have little impact on lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) or plasma triglycerides, two other risk factors for ASCVD. This review summarizes the evidence and the rationale to target Lp(a) and triglycerides and provides an o… Show more

“…In a phase III trial, it has been shown to reduce TG to less than 750 mg/dL in 77% of patients with familial chylomicronemia syndrome, which otherwise remains an untreatable disease [82] . Apo C-III primarily synthesized by the liver attenuates TG hydrolysis by inhibiting lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase and increasing TG incorporation in TG-rich lipoproteins [83] . Apo C-III has a proinflammatory effect on human monocytes and has been shown to contribute directly to atherogenesis by activating endothelial cells and recruiting monocytes [84] .…”

“…Apo-CIII je produkován především v játrech a v menší míře také v tenkém střevu. V cirkulaci se pak nachází na povrchu HDL lipoproteinů a lipoproteinů bohatých na TG, což zahrnuje hlavně chylomikrony, VLDL a IDL lipoproteiny (28,37). Jeho zvýšená produkce je spojena s hypertriglyceridemií, naopak snížená je provázena nízkými hladinami TG a chrání také před jejich postpradiálním vzestupem (37).…”

Ztrátové mutace genu pro apo-CIII provází kromě nízkých koncentrací TG také snížené riziko ASKVO (2,28).…”

“…It is generally accepted that ω-3 fatty acids exert numerous beneficial effects on human health. Despite inconclusive evidence for the reduction of mortality, ω-3 fatty acids prevent hyperlipidemia [2], exert anti-inflammatory properties [3], and are indispensable for brain development [4]. While fish oils are rich in ω-3 fatty acids, there is increasing demand for alternative sources from environmentally Nutrients 2020, 12, 150 2 of 13 sustainable and non-animal origins.…”
