Gianturco, “Abnormal effects of hypertriacylglycerolemic very low-density lipoproteins on 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase activity and viability of cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells”, in Biochimica et Biophysica Acta, volume 618, number 1, abstract, page 143:
      Our previous studies showed that hypertriacylglycerolemic very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) are functionally abnormal. Hypertriacylglycerolemic VLDL, but not normal VLDL, suppress 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase in fibroblasts cultured from normal human subjects.

      In addition, marine-derived n-3 PUFA did not result in significantly decreased formation of plasma PGE 2 in mildly hypertriacylglycerolemic subjects.
    • 2014, Victor R. Preedy, The Mediterranean Diet: An Evidence-Based Approach[2], page 380:
      After the consumption of high-fat meals, the neuroendocrine mechanism, responsible for the clearance of TRLs, cannot cope with the heavy hypertriacylglycerolemic load, and an appreciable amount of TRLs remain in the circulation, serving as a substrate for several lipases, the action of which yields free fatty acids, lyso-phospholipids, and TRL remnants.
