Abstract Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) has been inversely associated with low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol in normal women with slightly elevated cholesterol levels and hypothyroid women. More than 95% of IGF-I circulates bound to binding proteins (IGFBPs); of these IGFBP-1 is of particular interest as it is inversely regulated by insulin and is thought to inhibit the action of IGF-I and IGF-II. We examined the relationship between IGFBP-1 and LDL cholesterol in 41 healthy adult subjects. LDL cholesterol correlated with the body mass index (r=0·40, P<0·01), sex (r=0·51, P<0·001) and IGFBP-1 levels (r=0·36, P<0·02). LDL cholesterol did not correlate with age (r=0·25, P=not significant) or IGF-I (r=0·06, P=not significant). Upon multivariate regression analysis, sex, body mass index and IGFBP-1 were all independent predictors of LDL cholesterol (all P<0·05). Elevated IGFBP-1 levels have been associated with an inhibition of serum IGF-I bioactivity in children with insulin-dependent diabetes. IGFBP-1 also appears to inhibit IGF-I hexose-stimulated uptake. IGFBP-1 may also be inhibiting the effect of IGFs on the cellular metabolism of LDL cholesterol. Journal of Endocrinology (1994) 140, 521–524

ABSTRACT The effect of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) on the disturbance of lipid metabolism during primary hypothyroidism was studied in 12 women with primary hypothyroidism. Significant increases in both low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and intermediate-density lipoprotein cholesterol were seen. Lipoprotein concentrations reverted to normal after substitution with thyroxine (T4) until the euthyroid state was reached. A decrease in IGF-I of 65% (P<0·005) was seen in hypothyroid patients and this was inversely correlated (r=−0·75; P<0·01) with the concentration of LDL cholesterol. Multivariate regression analysis of LDL cholesterol against IGF-I and free T4 showed that IGF-I determines the concentration of LDL cholesterol instead of free T4. Our data suggest that in hypothyroidism, IGF-I is a determinant of the concentration of LDL cholesterol. In addition, hypothyroidism can influence plasma lipoprotein metabolism by lowering the activity of the salt-resistant lipase (liver lipase). Journal of Endocrinology (1989) 123, 341–345

Abstract: Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measurement of nutritional status by calculating the ratio of height and weight. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is more common in a person with a BMI of more than normal. In patients with T2DM, there is lipid metabolism disorder, dyslipidaemia. Changes in lipid profiles consist of increased levels of total cholesterol, Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL), and triglycerides, and decreased levels of High Density Lipoprotein (HDL). This study aimed to obtain the correlation between body mass index and lipid profile in T2DM patients in Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado. This was a descriptive analytical study using patients’ medical record in Endocrine Clinic Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado from September to November 2015. The Pearson correlation test showed correlations between BMI and total cholesterol levels with r=0.037and p=0.763; between BMI and HDL levels with r=-0.249 and p=0.039; between BMI and LDL levels with r=0.091 and p=0,455; and between BMI and triglyceride levels with r=0.179 and p=0.142. Conclusion: Among T2DM patients, there were no significant correlations between body mass index and total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, as wello as triglyceride levels. However, there was a significant correlation between body mass index and HDL levels. Keywords: body mass index, total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides, T2DM Abstrak: Indeks Massa Tubuh (IMT) merupakan salah satu pengukuran status gizi dengan menghitung perbandingan tinggi badan dan berat badan. Diabetes Melitus Tipe 2 (DMT2) lebih sering terjadi pada individu dengan IMT lebih dari normal. Pada pasien DMT2 terjadi gangguan metabolisme lipid yaitu dislipidemia. Perubahan profil lipid yang terjadi yaitu peningkatan kadar Kolesterol Total, Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL), dan trigliserida, serta penurunan kadar High Density Lipoprotein (HDL). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara IMT dengan profil lipid pada pasien DMT2di RSUP Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Manado.

Introduction: Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) is a type of low-density lipoprotein and the most widely transported cholesterol in the body. Increased levels of LDL in the body can be affected by genetics, age, gender, obesity, physical activity, lifestyle, drug consumption and smoking. Substances in a cigarette can cause an increase of LDL levels. Increased of LDL cholesterol levels can cause Coronary Heart Disease (CHD). The purpose of this research is to know the description of Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) levels on smoker and non-smoker adolescent in Buyan Hamlet, Pancasari Village, Sukasada District, Buleleng Bali. Method: The type of this research is descriptive. This research was conducted in April-May 2017, which used fasting blood samples of 42 respondents. Result: From the average result of LDL level in smoker adolescent that is 134,91 mg/dL higher than the average of LDL level in non-smoker adolescent that is 74,90 mg/dL. The result of LDL cholesterol levels was determined by 21 smoker adolescent respondents with the close to optimal category (100-129 mg/dL) as many as 9 people (42,8%), and 12 people (57,3%) with worry category (130-159 mg/dL). Whereas in 21 non-smoker adolescent respondents obtained  result of LDL cholesterol level test with optimal category (<100 mg/dL) counted 18 people (87,71%) and 3 person (14,30%) with close to optimal category (100-129 mg/dL). Discussion: Based on the results of this research can be concluded that in smoker adolescent obtained LDL levels with close to optimal category and worrying whereas in non-smoker adolescents obtained LDL levels in the optimal category and close to optimal.

Abstract We analyzed the susceptibility of low-density lipoproteins (LDL) to oxidation in 17 healthy smokers (43.3 +/- 16.8 pack-years) and 19 healthy nonsmokers, matched for age (smokers: 52 +/- 7 years; nonsmokers: 53 +/- 7 years), gender, and relative body mass. Cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and apolipoprotein (apo) B were not different between smokers and nonsmokers; apo A-I was slightly lower in smokers (one-tailed P = 0.066). To study whether LDL from smokers were prone to in vitro oxidation than LDL from nonsmokers, we measured the time kinetics of diene formation and the production of malondialdehyde during oxidation of LDL in vitro. In smokers and nonsmokers, respectively, the mean (+/-SD) lag times (tinh) of diene formation were 111 +/- 26 and 100 +/- 27 min, the peak rates of diene formation (Vmax) were 5.99 +/- 2.34 and 6.34 +/- 2.30 mmol x min-1 x g-1, and the amounts of dienes produced during the propagation phase (dmax) were 250 +/- 264 and 248 +/- 56 mmol x g-1. Neither the malondialdehyde content of LDL (measured as thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances) before oxidation nor the amount of malondialdehyde generated during oxidation (smokers: 57.0 +/- 14.2 micromol x g-1; nonsmokers: 63.2 +/- 15.2 micromol x g-1 indicated any statistically significant effect of smoking. When nonsmokers and smokers were considered together, the amount of malondialdehyde generated during oxidation correlated with age (nonparametric rs = 0.405), body mass index (r2 = 0.573), and concentrations of apo B (rs = 0.480), cholesterol (rs = 0.448), triglycerides (rs = 0.436), and LDL cholesterol (rs = 0.398). Our data show that smoking is not associated with increased oxidizability of LDL in healthy men and women at ages 42-63 years.

Lipid profile comparative analysis was performed to reveal the interdependence of lipids with Circadian locomoter output cycles protein kaput (CLOCK) 3111T/C gene polymorphism in menopausal women with/without a body mass index (BMI) of ≥25 kg/m2. Methods: A total of 193 female volunteers aged 45 to 60 years were divided into two groups: Those with BMI < 25 kg/m2 (control) and those with BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2. Each group was then divided into two subgroups: Those with the CLOCK TT-genotype and those with the CLOCK TC-, CC-genotypes. Lipid metabolism parameters were determined by the enzymatic method. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were detected via polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism technology. Results: There were no differences in CLOCK 3111T/C genotypes or allele frequency between the control and main groups. In addition, there were no differences in lipid profile parameters between women of the control group and different CLOCK 3111T/C genotypes. The total cholesterol (p = 0.041) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (p = 0.036) levels were higher in the subgroup of women with a BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 and CLOCK TT-genotype as compared to the subgroup with a BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 and minor allele 3111C. Conclusions: SNP 3111T/C of the CLOCK gene is not associated with BMI however, data suggest that the minor allele of the CLOCK 3111T/C gene polymorphism may have a protective role in atherogenic lipid levels in women with a BMI greater than or equal to 25 kg/m2.
