Apolipoprotein A-II influences apolipoprotein E-linked cardiovascular disease risk in women with high levels of HDL cholesterol and C-reactive protein. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: In a previous report by our group, high levels of apolipoprotein E (apoE) were demonstrated to be associated with risk of incident cardiovascular disease in women with high levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) in the setting of both low ...

Kinetic characteristics and regulation of HDL cholesteryl ester and apolipoprotein transport in the apoA-I-/- mouse [PDF]
The concentration dependence and tissue distribution of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesteryl ester and apolipoprotein (apo) transport were determined in apoA-I knockout mice (apoA-I-/-) that lack normal HDL in plasma. Rates of HDL cholesteryl ester clearance were highly sensitive to plasma HDL cholesteryl ester concentrations with clearance rates

Apolipoprotein E (apoE) is synthesized and secreted by arterial macrophages while apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) is present in surrounding interstitial fluids.

Adenoviral vector-mediated overexpression of serum amyloid A in apoA-I-deficient mice
Serum amyloid A (SAA) is an acute phase reactant that can become the predominant apolipoprotein of high density lipoprotein (HDL) during severe inflammatory states. However, the function of SAA is unknown.

In vivo metabolism of apolipoprotein A-I on high density lipoprotein particles LpA-I and LpA-I,A-II.
Apolipoprotein (apo) A-I is the major protein in high density lipoproteins (HDL) and is found in two major subclasses of lipoproteins, those containing apolipoprotein A-II (termed LpA-I,A-II) and those without apoA-II (termed LpA-I). The in vivo kinetics

Formation of high density lipoproteins containing both apolipoprotein A-I and A-II in the rabbit
Human plasma HDLs are classified on the basis of apolipoprotein composition into those that contain apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) without apoA-II [(A-I)HDL] and those containing apoA-I and apoA-II [(A-I/A-II)HDL]. ApoA-I enters the plasma as a component of

On the hepatic mechanism of HDL assembly by the ABCA1/apoA-I pathway
The mechanism for the assembly of HDL with cellular lipid by ABCA1 and helical apolipoprotein was investigated in hepatocytes. Both HepG2 cells and mouse primary culture hepatocytes produced HDL with apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) whether endogenously ...

A cDNA-dependent scintillation proximity assay for quantifying apolipoprotein A-I
We have developed a cDNA-dependent scintillation proximity assay (SPA) for rabbit apolipoprotein A-I that follows a classic radioimmunoassay scheme, in that antiserum and radiolabeled ligand are used in a process to quantify a source containing unlabeled

Pursuing an established research interest in our group, we built two models for synthetic HDL containing the natural cysteine mutants of apolipoprotein A-I, apolipoprotein A-I Milano (apoA-IM) and apolipoprotein A-I Paris (apoA-IP), both in their ...

Allelic drop-out may occur with a primer binding site polymorphism for the commonly used RFLP assay for the -1131T>C polymorphism of the Apolipoprotein AV gene. [PDF]
Apolipoprotein AV (ApoAV) gene variant, -1131T>C, is associated with increased triglyceride concentrations in all ethnic groups studied. An MseI based RFLP analysis is the most commonly used method for genotyping this SNP.
