高密度脂蛋白的高数值有时候并不是心脏健康的信号,恰恰相反:说明胆固醇系统无法从循环中吸取脂肪颗粒。胆固醇长期以来被看作是心脏病的克星。一位67岁妇女的高密度脂蛋白(HDL)超高,但她的动脉却布满了斑块。她的这一矛盾病例促使一群科学家们去证明,高密度脂蛋白的高数值有时候并不是心脏健康的信号,恰恰相反:说明胆固醇系统无法从循环中吸取脂肪颗粒。过去十年中,高密度脂蛋白颗粒一直让科学家 The high value of HDL is sometimes not a sign of heart health, on the contrary: it shows that the cholesterol system is unable to draw fat particles from the circulation. Cholesterol has long been regarded as a killer of heart disease. A 67 year old woman has high HDL, but her arteries are full of plaque.
