Small Dense LDL: Scientific Background, Clinical Relevance, and Recent Evidence Still a Risk Even with 'Normal' LDL-C Levels

Harold Superko et al.

Summary: Despite statin use and LDL-C reduction, residual cardiovascular disease event risk remains. Abnormal lipoprotein size and density distribution, known as lipoprotein heterogeneity, contributes to this residual risk. Recent clinical trial evidence reinforces the importance of LDL heterogeneity measurement and its impact on CHD risk prediction and outcomes.

The Spectrum of B Cell Functions in Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease

Diede Smeets et al.

Summary: B cells play a crucial role in the pathophysiology of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, with both protective and harmful functions. Their unique ability to produce and secrete antigen-specific antibodies that can have effects at distant sites is a key factor in the development of atherosclerosis. The atherogenic environment can impact the homeostasis, differentiation, and antibody production of B cells, but it is unclear if their responses are directed by atherosclerosis-specific antigens. Understanding the full spectrum of B cell properties in atherosclerosis is essential for developing innovative therapies.

The Role of Matrix Metalloproteinase in Inflammation with a Focus on Infectious Diseases

Han Sol Lee et al.

Summary: “Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play a critical role in disease development by participating in extracellular matrix remodeling and regulating inflammatory responses. Understanding the role of MMPs in disease pathogenesis has been a topic of extensive research. MMPs are involved in the pathogenesis of infectious diseases through the regulation of their activity and expression.”

MMPs and TIMPs levels are correlated with anthropometric parameters, blood pressure, and endothelial function in obesity

Soumaya Boumiza et al.

Summary: The study showed that obese individuals had elevated levels of MMP-1, MMP-2, TIMP-1, and TIMP-2, as well as decreased MMP-3/TIMP-1 and MMP-9/TIMP-1 ratios. These MMPs levels correlated with BMI, waist circumference, blood pressure, and endothelial function in obese individuals.

Yuxuan Li et al.

Summary: The study found that serum IL-35 levels were associated with obesity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Overweight patients with RA had significantly lower IL-35 levels compared to lean patients and showed characteristic immunological features of Th1/Th2/Th17-related cytokines.
