Effects of lipid-lowering agents on plasma lipid profile and apolipoprotein B in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus [PDF]
Objectives: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) accounts for about 90% of all cases of Diabetes Mellitus. Dyslipidaemia has been demonstrated to form a synergy with T2DM as risk factors for cardiovascular events.

Ferritin heavy chain Is the host factor responsible for HCV-Induced inhibition of apoB-100 production and is required for efficient viral infection [PDF]
Hepatic fat export occurs by apolipoprotein B-100-containing lipoprotein production, whereas impaired production leads to liver steatosis. Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is associated to dysregulation of apoB-100 secretion and steatosis; however, the ...

Mipomersen, an Apolipoprotein B Synthesis Inhibitor, Reduces Atherogenic Lipoproteins in Patients With Severe Hypercholesterolemia at High Cardiovascular Risk A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial [PDF]
ObjectivesThis study sought to examine the efficacy and safety of mipomersen for reducing atherogenic lipids and lipoproteins in patients with hypercholesterolemia.BackgroundMany patients on lipid-lowering therapies remain unable to achieve target low ...

Familial defective apolipoprotein B-100: low density lipoproteins with abnormal receptor binding.
Previous in vivo turnover studies suggested that retarded clearance of low density lipoproteins (LDL) from the plasma of some hypercholesterolemic patients is due to LDL with defective receptor binding.

Decreased VLDL-Apo B 100 fractional synthesis rate despite hypertriglyceridemia in subjects with type 2 diabetes and nephropathy [PDF]
Subjects with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and diabetic nephropathy (DN) often exhibit hypertriglyceridemia. The mechanism(s) of such an increase are poorly known. OBJECTIVE: We investigated VLDL-Apo B 100 kinetics in T2DM subjects with and without DN,

Reduced hippocampal volume in healthy young ApoE4 carriers: an MRI study. [PDF]
The E4 allele of the ApoE gene has consistently been shown to be related to an increased risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The E4 allele is also associated with functional and structural grey matter (GM) changes in healthy young, middle-aged and older ...

Familial defective apolipoprotein (apo) B-100 is a genetic disease that leads to hypercholesterolemia and to an increased serum concentration of low density lipoproteins that bind defectively to the apoB,E(LDL) receptor.

Correction of the neuropathogenic human apolipoprotein E4 (APOE4) gene to APOE3 in vitro using synthetic RNA/DNA oligonucleotides (chimeraplasts) [PDF]
Apolipoprotein E (apoE) is a multifunctional circulating 34-kDa protein, whose gene encodes single-nucleotide polymorphisms linked to several neurodegenerative diseases.

Familial Defective Apolipoprotein B-100 in 12 Subjects and Their Kindred [PDF]
Twelve unrelated subjects with heterozygous familial defective apolipoprotein B-100 were identified in a group of 252 patients with type IIa hypercholesterolaemia. Approximately 5% of hypercholesterolaemia can be explained by this mutation in the collective studied.
