Familial defective apolipoprotein B-100 is a genetic disorder of apolipoprotein B-100 that causes moderate to severe hypercholesterolemia. A single amino acid mutation in apolipoprotein B diminishes the ability of low density lipoproteins to bind to the ...

Abstract Recent evidence shows that apolipoprotein (apo) B, apoB/apoA-I ratio and lipoprotein(a) are better indicators of coronary risk than the conventional lipid profile. The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation of apoA-I and B, and lipoprotein(a) with myocardial infarction (MI).

Effects of overexpression of the amino-terminal fragment of apolipoprotein B on apolipoprotein B and lipoprotein production [PDF]
In vitro studies have shown that the binding site for microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) is within the first 17% of apoB (apoB-17). Expression of apoB-48 in McArdle cells decreases endogenous lipoprotein production; however, overexpression of

Apolipoprotein B Particles and Cardiovascular Disease: A Narrative Review.
Importance The conventional model of atherosclerosis presumes that the mass of cholesterol within very low-density lipoprotein particles, low-density lipoprotein particles, chylomicron, and lipoprotein (a) particles in plasma is the principal determinant

Dabigatran and apolipoprotein B [PDF]
Dabigatran is the first of a series of new direct acting oral anticoagulants that was clinically introduced for the prevention of ischaemic stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). In the randomized evaluation of long-term anticoagulation therapy (RE-LY) study, dabigatran was shown to be superior or non-inferior to warfarin in preventing ...

Trends in Levels of Lipids and Apolipoprotein B in US Youths Aged 6 to 19 Years, 1999-2016.
Importance Favorable trends occurred in the lipid levels of US youths through 2010, but these trends may be altered by ongoing changes in the food supply, obesity prevalence, and other factors.

The association between the apolipoprotein B/A-I ratio and coronary calcification may differ depending on kidney function in a healthy population. [PDF]
The apolipoprotein B/A-1 ratio has been reported to be one of the strongest risk predictors of cardiovascular events. However, its prognostic value for cardiovascular disease is still uncertain, especially in patients with chronic kidney disease.
