👉Triglyceride-rich lipoprotein remnants, low-density lipoproteins, and risk of coronary heart disease: a UK Biobank study 🔓Open Access The strength of association of apoB with CHD risk is not uniform; rather, it depends on which particle the apoB resides; TRL/remnant particles appear to have an inherent atherogenicity that is substantially greater than that of LDL The implications of the present investigation and earlier findings are: (i) use of non-HDL-C as a single, aggregate marker of risk may not provide as accurate prediction of CHD risk as first thought since its component parts—TRL/remnant-C and LDL-C—appear to have differing quantita- tive associations with risk (ii) interventions targeted to regulate TRL/remnant lipoproteins may prove beneficial, especially when ad- dressing the residual TRL/remnant-associated risk in statin-treated patients Finally, there is a pressing need not only to develop more refined methods for assessment of remnant concentrations but also to improve the understanding of the molecular basis of the atherogenicity of this lipoprotein species academic.oup.com/eurheartj/a…
