This book is the first of two volumes that offer a comprehensive,
up-to-date account of current knowledge regarding high-density
lipoprotein (HDL), the changes that occur in HDL under different
conditions, the clinical applications of HDL, and means of
enhancing HDL functionality. HDL comprises a diverse group of
lipoproteins and its composition and metabolism are dynamic. In
this volume, the focus is on the changes observed in HDL under
different health statuses, with particular attention to the
functional and structural correlations of HDL and apolipoprotein
A-1. The impacts of a wide variety of factors on HDL are examined
in depth, covering, for example, diet, exercise, smoking, age,
diverse diseases, and different forms of environmental pollution.
It has long been known that HDL has anti-atherosclerotic and
antidiabetic properties, and more recently its anti-aging
activities have been recognized. These benefits of HDL are highly
dependent on its lipids, proteins, apolipoproteins, and enzymes,
and specifically their composition and ratios. In documenting the
latest knowledge in this field, this volume will be of interest to
both researchers and clinicians.
