[Disorders of lipid metabolism in sudden death from ischemic heart disease]. 1979

Type IV hyperlipoproteinemia and sharp increase in the concentration of free fatty acids in blood were revealed in most individuals who had died suddenly of ischemic heart disease. Beside increased lipolytic activity of the myocardium, accumulation of free fatty acids and triglycerides in the muscle tissue of the heart was revealed. The authors presume that the increase of the concentration of free fatty acids and tryglycerides, just as of their source in the affected myocardium, stimulates hypoxia and promotes electrical instability of the heart and sudden death.

D010743 Phospholipids Lipids containing one or more phosphate groups, particularly those derived from either glycerol (phosphoglycerides see GLYCEROPHOSPHOLIPIDS) or sphingosine (SPHINGOLIPIDS). They are polar lipids that are of great importance for the structure and function of cell membranes and are the most abundant of membrane lipids, although not stored in large amounts in the system. Phosphatides,Phospholipid

D002788 Cholesterol Esters Fatty acid esters of cholesterol which constitute about two-thirds of the cholesterol in the plasma. The accumulation of cholesterol esters in the arterial intima is a characteristic feature of atherosclerosis.

D003327 Coronary Disease An imbalance between myocardial functional requirements and the capacity of the CORONARY VESSELS to supply sufficient blood flow. It is a form of MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA (insufficient blood supply to the heart muscle) caused by a decreased capacity of the coronary vessels.
