Emotional-painful stress in rats results in the increase of atherogenic and decrease of antiatherogenic lipoprotein fractions. Adaptation of animals to periodic intermittent hypoxia significantly enhanced the proportion of antiatherogenic lipoproteins in the blood and reduced the degree of
This article discusses an overlooked subject, namely that serum lipemia affects the transfer of oxygen from the blood to the tissues. It discusses several mechanisms whereby lipemia limits oxygen diffusion. Observations of improved tissue oxygenation in atherosclerotic patients coincident with the
Hyperlipidemia is regarded as an independent risk factor in the development of ischemic heart disease, and it can increase the myocardial susceptibility to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Ischemic postconditioning (Postcon) has been demonstrated to attenuate the myocardial injury induced by I/R
Obstructive sleep apnea, a breathing disorder in sleep characterized by intermittent and recurrent pauses in respiration, is also a major risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Accumulated evidence implicates the apnea-related multiple cycles of hypoxia/reoxygenation in promoting
Chronic intermittent hypoxia (IH) during sleep can result from obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a disorder that is particularly prevalent in obesity. OSA is associated with high levels of circulating leptin, cardiovascular dysfunction, and dyslipidemia. Relationships between leptin and cardiovascular
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) and associated with dysregulation of lipid metabolisms and atherosclerosis. Causal relationships between OSA and metabolic abnormalities have not been established because of confounding effects of underlying
Intermittent hypoxic training (IHT) is a discrete cost-effective method for improving athletic performance and high altitude acclimatization. Unfortunately, IHT protocols widely vary in terms of hypoxia severity, duration, and number of cycles affecting physiological outcomes. In the present study,
Objective: To detect whether Danlou Tablet (, DLT) regulates the hypoxia-induced factor (HIF)-1 α-angiopoietin-like 4 (Angptl4) mRNA signaling pathway and explore the role of DLT in treating chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH)-induced
The effects of acute exposure to high altitude hypoxia upon plasma levels of lipids and lipoproteins were studied in 6 healthy subjects observed under strict dietary control. Fasting and postprandial values, first measured at low altitude (< 300 m), were compared to values measured 7 days after
Obstructive sleep apnea leads to chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) and is associated with atherosclerosis. We have previously shown that C57BL/6J mice exposed to CIH and a high-cholesterol diet develop dyslipidemia, atherosclerosis of the aorta, and upregulation of a hepatic enzyme of lipoprotein
BACKGROUND
There is growing evidence from animal models that intermittent hypoxemia (IH) may induce dyslipidemia. Altered lipid metabolism may contribute to the increased cardiovascular risk observed in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). In this multisite, cross-sectional study, we tested the hypothesis
Obstructive sleep apnea, a syndrome leading to recurrent intermittent hypoxia (IH), has been associated previously with hypercholesterolemia, independent of underlying obesity. We examined the effects of experimentally induced IH on serum lipid levels and pathways of lipid metabolism in the absence
