El colesterol HDL: ¿un nuevo objetivo terapéutico en el manejo de las dislipidemias y la ateroesclerosis?

Low plasma HDL cholesterol levels are an independent risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. During the past years, the study of HDL has been stimulated by the discovery of novel genes and proteins, which have provided new insights into the molecular and cellular mechanisms involved...
