"Oxidative Stress and HDL Dysfunction in Metabolic Syndrome"Prof. John Chapman (biography)
English - 2005-04-15 - 31 minutes
|
 | (21 slides) |
Summary :
An atherogenic disequilibrium of lipid metabolism is one of the key features of both the metabolic syndrome (MetS) and type 2 diabetes (DM2). Prof. John Chapman reviews here the disturbed lipid metabolism of the MetS and DM2 and discusses the mechanisms of lipid-induced vascular inflammation.
In particular, the antioxidative properties of HDL cholesterol are discussed along with the components of the HDL molecule that are implicated in its intrinsic anti-atherogenic activity. In addition, Prof. Chapman reviews his own groups research, examining the role that a perturbed HDL metabolism plays in the antioxidative potential of both insulin resistant and MetS patients and the usefulness of 8-isoprostane levels as a marker of attenuated HDL anti-atherogenic activity in these patients.

Learning objectives :
After viewing this presentation, participants will be able to discuss:
• The three intra-plaque processes involved in plaque rupture
• The five disequilibria that favour the progression of atherosclerosis
• The atherogenic lipid disequilibrium of the metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes
• The role of bioactive oxidized lipids in the induction of vascular wall inflammation
• The anti-atherogenic actions of HDL cholesterol
• The components of HDL that are implicated in its intrinsic antioxidative activity
• The usefulness of 8-isoprostanes as a global marker of systemic oxidative stress in the metabolic syndrome.
