title: Mechanisms of dyslipidemia of chronic renal failure.
abstract: Chronic renal failure is associated with profound dysregulation of lipid metabolism and marked abnormalities of plasma lipid profile. This review is intended to provide an overview of the molecular basis of lipid disorders in chronic renal failure and explore their potential impact on cardiovascular disease and energy metabolism.
