Abstract Background: In order to obtain the suitable lipid requirements of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) cultured in the recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), the effects of dietary lipid levels on fat-related physiological metabolism and antioxidant defenses were investigated. Four isonitrogenous diets containing 45% crude protein with increasing dietary lipid levels of 12%, 15%, 18%, and 21% were fed to 360 fish with initial body weight of 333.25 ± 20.71 g for 77 d. Results: The results showed that a high lipid diet increased lipase and amylase activities in trout livers, whereas a low lipid diet improved lipase and alkaline phosphatase activities in trout intestines. Meanwhile, increased dietary lipid levels elevated low density lipoprotein content and decreased high density lipoprotein, triglyceride, total cholesterol concentrations and the high density lipoprotein/low density lipoprotein ratio in serum. Moreover, increases in superoxide dismutase, glutathione, and malondialdehyde activities were observed in serum with increasing dietary lipid levels, while catalase activity and the catalase/superoxide dismutase ratio decreased. Conclusion: These results indicate that rainbow trout fed diets with low and medium fat levels received adequate fat nutrition and that the diets ensured healthy growth by improving digestive absorption, fat synthesis and transport, and antioxidant levels, and the L12 group had the best growth performance. In conclusion, rainbow trout are healthier when fed diets with approximately 12% lipid levels in RAS.

Objective Dyslipidemia is a leading risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. By collecting the blood lipid profiles among adult residents of Shenmu City in Shaanxi Province, China, we aim to assess and elucidate the prevalence and risk factors of dyslipidemia in this city. Method Stratified multistage sampling was used to survey 4,598 permanent adult residents in five areas of Shenmu (2 communities in the county seat, 2 in the southern area and 2 in the northern area) from September 2019 to December 2019. Questionnaire surveys and physical examinations were conducted. Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 26.0. Results The average level of total cholesterol (TC) is 4.47mmol/L, that of triglyceride (TG) 1.32mmol/L, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) 1.27mmol/L, apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) 1.44g/L, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) 2.7mmol/L and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) 0.97g/L. The prevalence of hypercholesterolemia (HTC), hypertriglyceridemia (HTG), low high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C) and high low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C) is 22.4%, 33.3%, 14.5%, and 5.81%, respectively, and the overall prevalence of dyslipidemia is 48.27%. Furthermore, blood lipid levels and prevalence of dyslipidemia vary by region, age, gender, occupation and educational level. Nine risk factors of dyslipidemia were identified, which are living in county seat or northern industrial area, increasing age, male, overweight or obesity, abdominal obesity, smoking, hypertension, abnormal glucose metabolism (pre-diabetes or diabetes) and hyperuricemia. Conclusion The blood lipid levels and dyslipidemia prevalence of adults in Shenmu City are higher comparing to national averages of China. Combining risk factors of dyslipidemia, early detection and public health interventions are necessary in high-risk population for associated cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases prevention.

Background: Circulating into foetal circulation across the placental barrier, abnormal maternal serum lipids predispose neonates to metabolic dysfunction and thereafter affect the steroid metabolism and functions of extra-embryonic foetal tissues. Methods: A systematic review was conducted by searching PubMed–MEDLINE and the Cochrane library between January 2010 and January 2020. The included studies were English case control studies that described original data on at least one raw lipid measurement during pregnancy in healthy women who delivered large for gestational age (LGA) newborns and in healthy women with non-LGA newborns. The data extracted from 12 studies were pooled, and the weighted mean difference (WMD) in lipid levels was calculated using random effects models. A meta-analysis was performed to identify sources of heterogeneity and to describe the significant value of the collected studies. Results: Of 649 published articles identified, a total of 12 met the inclusion criteria. Compared with women who had non-LGA newborns, those who had LGA newborns had significantly higher triglyceride (TG) levels (WMD = 0.28, 95% CI −0.02 to 0.54) and lower high density lipoprotein cholestrol (HDL-C) levels (WMD = 0.08, 95% CI −0.13 to −0.03), but not have significantly lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels. Moreover, the levels of total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and very low density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C) were inconsistent between both groups. Conclusions: High levels of TG and low levels of HDL-C could cause births of LGA newborns whereas maternal serum of TC, LDL-C and VLDL-C cannot be used as predictor of LGA.

In severe untreated rheumatoid arthritis (RA), reductions in high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol and total cholesterol have been noted; this is in line with findings in other pathologies/conditions associated with inflammation or infection, such as sepsis, cancer, trauma or the postoperative period. Although the precise mechanisms remain to be established, cytokine-induced activation of the reticuloendothelial system is potentially critical to such changes. Consequently, dampening of inflammation in severe RA—as occurs with several biologics—may lead to increases, not only in high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, but also with other lipid moieties, including total and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol and, perhaps, triglycerides. This concept is consistent with findings following antitumour necrosis factor treatment and interleukin-6 receptor inhibition in patients with RA. At the same time, it is increasingly apparent that potent dampening of inflammation, however achieved, broadly reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease in RA. Therefore, changes in lipid profiles, particularly increases in cholesterol and triglycerides that occur with treatments for severe inflammation, may not represent increased cardiovascular risk as in the usual understanding of lipid-level elevations in individuals without significant inflammation. Rather, changes in lipid levels, in part or largely, may represent a predictable response to attenuation of inflammation. These observations are increasingly important clinically and should aid in the understanding and interpretation of lipid changes under inflammatory conditions, as well as in the context of potent anti-inflammatory interventions.

Abstract Objectives Phosphorylation-related single-nucleotide polymorphisms (phosSNPs) are missense SNPs that may influence protein phosphorylation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of phosSNPs on lipid levels and RA. Methods We examined the association of phosSNPs with lipid levels and RA in large-scale genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and performed random sampling and fgwas analyses to determine whether the phosSNPs associated with lipid levels and RA were significantly enriched. Furthermore, we performed QTL analysis and Mendelian randomization analysis to obtain additional evidence to be associated with the identified phosSNPs and genes. Results We found 483 phosSNPs for lipid levels and 243 phosSNPs for RA in the GWAS loci (P < 1.0 × 10−5). SNPs associated with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, Total cholesterol (TC) and RA were significantly enriched with phosSNPs. Almost all of the identified phosSNPs showed expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) effects. A total of 48 protein QTLs and 9 metabolite QTLs were found. The phosSNP rs3184504 (p.Trp262Arg) at SH2B3 was significantly associated with RA, SH2B3 expression level, and plasma levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, TC, hypoxanthine and 80 proteins, including beta-2-microglobulin. SH2B3 was differentially expressed between RA cases and controls in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and synovial tissues. Mendelian randomization analysis showed that SH2B3 expression level was significantly associated with TC level and RA. Plasma beta-2-microglobulin level was causally associated with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, TC levels and RA. Conclusion The findings suggested that phosSNPs may play important roles in lipid metabolism and the pathological mechanisms of RA. PhosSNPs may influence lipid levels and RA risk by altering gene expression and plasma protein levels.

SummaryHuman plasma lipoprotein fractions were prepared by flotation in the ultracentrifuge. Addition of these fractions to platelet-rich, platelet-poor and platelet-free plasma affected the partial thromboplastin and Stypven clotting times to various degrees. Addition of high density lipoprotein (HDL) to platelet-poor and platelet-free plasma shortened both the partial thromboplastin and the Stypven time, whereas addition of low density lipoprotein and very low density lipoprotein (LDL + VLDL) fractions only shortened the Stypven time. The additions had little or no effect in platelet-rich plasma.Experiments involving the addition of anti-HDL antibodies to plasmas with different platelet contents and measuring of clotting times produced results that were in good agreement with those noted when lipoprotein was added. The relation between structure and the clot-promoting activity of various phospholipid components is discussed.
