Dyslipidemia is a medical condition that refers to an abnormal level of blood lipids.
The most common type of dyslipidemia is hyperlipidemia or high lipid levels.
less common form of dyslipidemia: hypolipidemia, abnormally low lipid levels.
Dyslipidemias can affect any lipid parameters including LDL cholesterol levels, HDL cholesterol levels, triglycerides, or a combination of these lipids.
Two categories:
Primary dyslipidemia
Secondary dyslipidemia

2. Antihyperlipidemic agents or hypolipidemic
agents are a diverse group of pharmaceuticals
that are used in the treatment of high levels of
fats (lipids) in the blood.
They are also called lipid lowering drugs.
3. Hyperlipidemia
It is the condition of abnormally elevated levels
of any or all lipids or lipoproteins in the blood.
Lipids are carried in plasma in lipoproteins.
Plasma lipid concentrations are dependent on
the concentration of lipoproteins.
4. Lipoproteins
A lipoprotein is a biochemical assembly whose
purpose is to transport lipid molecules in
water, as in blood or extracellular fluid.
They have a single layer phospholipid and
cholesterol outer shell with hydrophilic portion
oriented outward and lipophilic portion oriented
inward.
5.
6. Classification of lipoproteins
lipoproteins are classified on the basis of their
densities. Major classes of lipoproteins are:
1. Chylomicrons or Ultra low density
lipoproteins(ULDL)
2. Very low density lipids(VLDL)
3. Low density lipids(LDL)
4. High density lipids(HDL)
7. Chylomicrons
They carry triglycerides(TG) from intestine to
liver, skeletal muscles and adipose tissue
where TG is hydrolyzed by lipoprotein lipase.
After a large portion of TG is hydrolyzed,
chylomicron remnants are formed and taken
up by liver thus transferring dietry fat also to
liver.
8.
9. Very low density
lipoprotein(VLDL)
They carry TGs from liver to adipose tissue.
Also transport endogenous (in contrast to
chylomicrons) phospholipids, cholesterol and
cholesteryl esters.
They have a diameter between 30-80nm.
Converted into LDL and IDL in bloodstream by
removal of apoproteins.
10. Low Density Lipoprotein(LDL)
Sometimes referred to as “Bad lipoprotein” as
they are responsible for atherosclerosis
progression by oxidizing in the walls of
arteries.
Contains chiefly Cholesterol.
Carry fats and cholesterol from liver to tissues.
11. High density lipoprotein(HDL)
Referred as “Good lipoprotein” as the high
levels lead to low rates of atherosclerosis
progression.
Collect fat molecules from cells/tissues to the
liver.
Generally raised levels of VLDL, IDL and LDL
are atherogenic while HDL may be protective
as it facilitates removal of CH from tissues.

hyperlipidemia
Purpose
The systemic administration of the surfactant triton
to rats results in a biphasic elevation of plasma
cholesterol and triglycerides.
Requirements:
Chemicals: Surfactant, Triton
Animals: Wistar strain male albino rats
16. Procedure
Rats are divided into 7 groups such that each group contains 6
rats and kept in cages 5 days prior to dosing
The animals are starved for 18hr with 10% aqueous solution of
triton at 400mg /kg body weight given i.p. The test drugs and
the solvent for control is administered simultaneously with triton
injection.
After administration of triton, blood is collected by retro orbital
puncture under ether anesthesia and subjected to
centrifugation to obtain serum after 24hr and 48hr
17. Evaluation
Serum is analyzed for serum triglyceride, serum
total cholesterol, serum high density lipoprotein
cholesterol, serum low density lipoprotein
cholesterol, serum very low density lipoprotein
cholesterol, serum glucose .
The result is evaluated by ANOVA test and Dunnet
Multiple comparison test.
18. Cholesterol-diet induced
atherosclerosis in rabbits
Purpose
Rabbits are known to be susceptible to
hypercholesterolemia and arteriosclerosis after
excessive cholesterol feeding. Therefore, this
approach has been chosen by to study the effect of
potential anti-arteriosclerotic drugs.
Requirements
Animals: White New Zealand male rabbits
19. Procedure
Group of Male rabbits (standard and control) at an age of 8–10
weeks are used and blood is withdrawn from the marginal ear
vein for determination of total cholesterol, total glycerides, and
blood sugar
The rabbits are switched from commercial food to a diet
supplemented with 0.3–2% cholesterol and kept on this regimen
for a period of 10–12 weeks
One group is kept on normal diet.During and at the end of the
experiment blood is taken for analysis
20. The animals are sacrificed and the thoracic aorta is
removed, cleaned of surrounding tissues, and longitudinally
cut and opened for fixation with formaldehyde
The tissue is stained with oil red. In animals fed a normal
diet, the aorta does not show any staining, whereas in
cholesterol-fed rabbits the aorta shows severe atherogenic
lesions
21. Evaluation
The percentage of the intimal surface covered by
the oil red positive lesions is calculated with a
computerized plan meter.
Statistical evaluation is performed by Dunnett’s or
Scheffé’s test.
22. Hereditary hyperlipemia in rabbits
Purpose
To produce hereditary hyperlipidemia in rabbit.
To study the effect of potential anti-arteriosclerotic
drugs
Requirements
Chemical: Probucol
Animals: Female DDY mice, Homozygous Wistar
Hereditary Hyperlipidemic rabbits
23. Procedure
Homozygous wistar hereditary hyperlipidemic rabbits are raised
by mating heterozygous female wistar hereditary hyperlipidemic
rabbits with homozygous male Wistar hereditary hyperlipidemic
rabbits
At 2 months of age, eight rabbits are divided into two groups
(group A and group B). Rabbits in group A (two males, two
females) are fed standard rabbit chow for 6 months
Rabbits in group B (two males, two females) were raised with
rabbit chow enriched with 1% (wt/wt) probucol for 6 months
24. The amount of daily diet for each animal is restricted to 100 g
during the study period
Six months later (at the age of 8 months), the rabbits are
sacrificed and their blood and aortas are taken for analysis
25. Evaluation
Plasma levels of cholesterol is measured by
the enzymatic method.
Statistical significance is determined by the
student’s t test.
The t test compares two averages and tells if
they are different from each other. The t test
also tells how significant the differences are.
26. Hypolipidemic activity in Syrian
hamsters
Purpose
The lipoprotein and bile acid metabolism of the
hamster is closer to human.
Easy to handle and more human like.
Requirements
Animal: Syrian Hamsters
27. Procedure
Male Syrian hamsters weighing 95–125 g at the start of the experiment are
randomly assigned to form groups of 6 animals each
After 1 month of cholesterol rich diet they develop sub endothelial foam cells
which are precursors of fatty streaks that develop into complex plaques
the animals are anesthetized with diethyl ether, a blood sample is taken from
the superior venacava
28. Evaluation
The plasma is analyzed for total cholesterol using a
colorimetric enzymatic assay.
The cholesterol content of high density lipoprotein is
determined using a precipitation kit.
30. Inhibition of the isolated enzyme
HMG-CoA-reductase in vitro
Purpose
For screening purposes, studies on the inhibition of
HMG-CoA reductase obtained from rat liver
microsomal fraction can be used.
Requirements
Chemical: Dithiothreitol (reducing agent)
Animal: Rats
31. The inhibitory activity of the test compound on
HMGCoA reductase is estimated with soluble
enzyme preparations obtained from the microsomal
fraction of rat liver.
HMG-COA reductase is a rate controlling enzyme of
mevalonate pathwaythat produces cholesterol.
Inhibitors of HMG-COA reduce the cholesterol
production in body by inhibiting HMG-COA.
32. Procedure
The enzyme reaction is carried out with 50 μl partially purified HMGCoA reductase in buffer containing 25 mM
Tris, 10 mM EDTA, and 10 mM dithiothreitol at pH 7.5, 20 μl of 910 μM HMG-CoA solution containing 100 nCi
of 14C-HMG-CoA and 20 μl of NADPH regenerating system , with the actual concentration of 50 mM
NADPH.The final incubation volume is 200 ul.
The main reaction is preceded by 20 min preincubation with the NADPH regenerating system at 37 °C,
followed by 20 min incubation at 37 °C of the completed samples with the test compound or the standard and
stopped by addition of 75 μl 2 N HClO4
After 60 min at room temperature, the samples are cooled in an ice-bath and neutralized by addition of 75 μl
3 N potassium acetate
33. Supplementing the volume with water to 500 μl, the precipitate is centrifuged and 250 μl
of the clear supernatant are applied to a column (0.6 × 8.0 cm) of BIORAD AG1-X8
(100–200 mesh)
Mevalonolactone is eluted with water discarding the first 750 μl and collecting the next 3
500 μl. Five hundred μl of the eluate are used for measurement in duplicate, mixed in
vials with 10 ml Quickscint (Zinsser) and measured in a liquid scintillation counter
(Beckman)
The assay is generally performed in triplicate. Lovastatin sodium is used as standard.
34. Evaluation
The mean values with and without inhibitors are
compared for the calculation of inhibition.
IC50 values are calculated.
35. ACAT inhibitory activity
ACAT stands for Aceyl COA cholesterol
acyltransferase.
It is an intracellular protein located in
the endoplasmic reticulum that forms cholesteryl
esters from cholesterol.
Excess cellular cholesterol is stored as cholesteryl
esters.
In the disease atherosclerosis, chronic
accumulation of CE in macrophages causes these
cells to appear foamy and is a hallmark of early
stages in atherosclerosis.
ACAT has been considered as a drug target for
36. Procedure
Male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 200–225 g arefed with a diet
containing 5.5% peanut oil, 0.5%cholic acid and 1.5% cholesterol
On the last day, food is removed and the isotopes are administered.
[3H]cholesterol (13 mCi/rat) is given by oral gavage and
[14C]cholesterol (1.5 mCi/rat) is given is given by tail vein injection
Each animal receives 1ml of oral dose and 0.5ml of i.v. dose. The rats
are allowed to consume their respective diets , and are sacrificed 48 h
after the isotope administration.
