Should not yet change lipid management; leaves open remnant lipoproteins as targets pending interventional trials.
The review proposes a new definition of remnant lipoproteins as 'LPL bound TG-rich lipoproteins' and highlights VLDL remnants as key targets for atherosclerosis prevention.
Nakajima et al. (2018) conducted a review in Atherosclerosis. Postprandial remnant lipoproteins was evaluated. VLDL remnants and remnant lipoproteins are proposed as major atherogenic lipoproteins in postprandial plasma, serving as potential targets for the prevention of atherosclerosis.
