The present invention provides methods for treating diseases and disorders that are associated with elevated levels of lipids and lipoproteins. The methods of the present invention comprise administering to a high cardiovascular risk patient a pharmaceutical composition comprising a PCSK9 inhibitor. In certain embodiments, the PCSK9 inhibitor is an anti-PCSK9 antibody such as the exemplary antibody referred to herein as mAb316P or alirocumab. The methods of the present invention are useful for treating high cardiovascular risk patients with hypercholesterolemia and elevated levels of other atherogenic lipoproteins that are not adequately controlled by maximum tolerated dose statin therapy. In particular, the methods of the present invention are useful for reducing cardiovascular risk and lowering atherogenic lipoproteins in high cardiovascular risk patients within 12 months following an acute coronary syndrome event despite a maximum tolerated dose statin therapy.

The sulfated oxysterol 5-cholesten-3β, 25-diol 3-sulphate, a nuclear cholesterol metabolite that decreases lipid biosynthesis and increases cholesterol secretion and degradation, is provided as an agent to lower intracellular and serum cholesterol and/or triglycerides, and to prevent or treat lipid accumulation-associated inflammation and conditions associated with such inflammation. Methods which involve the use of this sulfated oxysterol to treat conditions associated with high cholesterol and/or high triglycerides and/or inflammation (e.g. hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases, atherosclerosis, etc.) are also provided.

The invention relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicines, in particular to an extract of the effective part of sibiraea augustata(rehd.) hand-mazz for preventing adiposity and lowering hypercholesteremia, a preparation method and an application thereof. According to the prevention of the adiposity in the invention, the extract of the effective part of the sibiraea augustata(rehd.) hand-mazz is obtained by the method comprising the following steps: (1) washing and pulverizing; (2) leaching by water to obtain a total water leaching extract; (3) dissolving the total extract by methanol or ethanol; (4) extracting by chloroform or methylene chloride; and (5) extracting a water solution after being degreased by the chloroform or the methylene chloride by ethyl acetate, decompressing and concentrating to obtain the effective part.
