Inflammation and lipid accumulation are two basic hallmarks of atherosclerosis as a chronic
disease. Inflammation not only is a local response but can also be considered as a systemic …

Epidemiologic studies detected an inverse relationship between HDL (high-density
lipoprotein) cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease …

Moreover, over the last few years the approach to treatment of patients with a high
cardiovascular risk has totally changed from treatment aimed at a specific risk factor (ie …

Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a common genetic cause of elevated low-density
lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) due to defective clearance of circulating LDL particles. All FH …

Epidemiological studies have suggested an inverse correlation between high-density
lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels and the risk of cardiovascular disease. HDLs promote …

Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is one of the most common genetic disorders in humans.
It is an extremely atherogenic metabolic disorder characterized by lifelong elevations of …

Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a genetic disease characterized by high low-density
lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (LDL-c) concentrations that increase cardiovascular risk and …

Abstract Purpose of Review This review highlights recent advances on the mechanisms and
impact of HDL-small non-coding RNAs (sRNA) on intercellular communication in …

Abstract Background Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) could be attractive circulating
biomarkers for cardiovascular risk stratification in subjects at high atherosclerotic …
