Apolipoprotein A-I Mimetic Peptides
Objective— Apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) mimetic peptides have antiatherogenic properties of high-density lipoprotein in vitro and have been shown to inhibit atherosclerosis in vivo.

Apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) induces the translocation of newly synthesized cholesterol as well as caveolin-1 to the cytosolic lipid-protein particle (CLPP) fraction in astrocytes before its appearance in high density lipoprotein generated in the medium ...

Phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) transfers phospholipids between HDL and other lipoproteins in plasma. It also remodels spherical, apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I)-containing HDL into large and small particles in a process involving the dissociation of ...

Lipid-sensing high-throughput ApoA-I assays
Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I), a primary protein component of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), plays an important role in cholesterol metabolism mediating the formation of HDL and the efflux of cellular cholesterol from macrophage foam cells in arterial ...

Plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) has a profound effect on neutral lipid transfers between HDLs and apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing lipoproteins when it is expressed in combination with human apoA-I in HuAI/CETP transgenic (Tg) rodents.

Familial hypoalphalipoproteinemia (hypoalpha), characterized by a decreased high density lipoprotein level, is associated with an increased incidence of premature cardiovascular disease. Restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of genomic DNA has detected a polymorphism for the PstI restriction endonuclease near the apoA-I gene, with either a ...

Structure-function studies of apoA-I variants:site-directed mutagenesis and natural mutations
Five mutants of apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), apoA-I(Δ63–73), apoA-I(Δ140–150), apoA-I(63–73@140–150), apoA-I(R149V), and apoA-I(P143A) were compared with human plasma apoA-I for their ability to promote cholesterol and phospholipid efflux from HepG2 ...

Gene transfer of wild-type apoA-I and apoA-I Milano reduce atherosclerosis to a similar extent [PDF]
Background The atheroprotective effects of systemic delivery of either apolipoprotein A-I (wtApoA-I) or the naturally occurring mutant ApoA-I Milano (ApoA-IM) have been established in animal and human trials, but direct comparison studies evaluating the ...
