About this Research Topic
The emerging high-throughput omics such as genomics, transcriptomics, lipidomics, proteomics, and metabolomics have been used in the search of new biomarkers in several diseases. Lipoproteomics is the lipidomic and proteomic analysis of lipoproteins. Recent lipoproteomics research revealed that lipoprotein-associated lipids and proteins have more functions rather than simply being structural molecules and parts of lipid metabolism. Omic technologies are being widely used in the search of new sources of markers, candidates for vaccine, and alteration of expression patterns in response to environmental changes and signaling pathways in different diseases. Recent evidence has shown that the prevention of unhealthy dietary habits and sedentarism is crucial in the management of lipid metabolism-related disorders. In this sense, a number of scientific societies recommend the adherence to certain healthy dietary patterns, such as the Mediterranean diet, the Vegetarian diet, and low-carbohydrate diets, as well as increased physical activity between others. However, few studies have reviewed the impact of dietary patterns on lipoproteomics.
This Research Topic would provide an optimal platform for this open interchange of information. We encourage interested scientists to submit mini-reviews, methods papers, review articles, perspectives and original research articles covering this topic in all its diversity to facilitate the communication of perspectives and new information between scientists interested in understanding the multiple implications of the involvement of the nutrition, immune system and lipoproteins. We believe that this Research Topic will be beneficial to researchers intent to contribute to the field of lipoproteomics.
Areas to be covered in this Research Topic may include, but are not limited to:
- Lipidomic and proteomic profile of lipoproteins;
- HDL dysfunction and related disorders;
- Triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and postprandial metabolism;
- Cell-signaling and change in plasma lipoproteins;
- Dietary pattern and lipoprotein profiles.
