The Potential Role of Electronegative High-Density Lipoprotein H5 Subfraction in RA-Related Atherosclerosis

Although the heterogeneity of high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-c) composition is associated with atherosclerotic cardiovascular risk, the link between electronegative subfractions of HDL-c and atherosclerosis in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) remains unknown. We examined the association of the p...

In macrophages, H5 upregulated the mRNA and protein expression of IL-1β and IL-8 in a dose-dependent manner, and their expression levels were significantly higher than H1-treated macrophages (all <i>p</i> < 0.001). H5 induced more foam cell formation compared with H1-treated macrophages (<i>p</i> < 0.005). In addition, H5 has significantly lower cholesterol efflux capacity than H1 (<i>p</i> < 0.005).
