Apolipoprotein A5 reduces clearance of VLDL by altering apolipoprotein E content [PDF]
Apolipoprotein A-V (APOA5) is a critical regulator of circulating triglyceride (TG) levels. Its deletion leads to elevated plasma TG concentrations by altering the metabolism of VLDL particles in vivo.

Apolipoprotein E ε4 and ε3 alleles associate with cerebrospinal fluid tau and cognition in the presence of amyloid-𝜷 in mild cognitive impairment but not in Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]
Apolipoprotein E is the most well-established genetic risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease. However, the associations of apolipoprotein E with tau pathology and cognition remain controversial.

TREM2 coding variants in Slovak Alzheimer's disease patients
Background: Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) is an important modulator of innate immune responses. In the human brain, TREM2 is primarily expressed on microglia and is involved in cell survival, phagocytosis, and regulation of ...

Association of apolipoprotein ε4 allele with intellectual disability in children with cerebral palsy
Background: The apolipoprotein E (ApoE) protein is the most essential lipid transporter in the brain which is vital in neurodevelopment. The production of ApoE is regulated by several genes and increases under certain conditions such as cerebral injury.

Apolipoprotein E and Alzheimer's Disease [PDF]
The apolipoprotein E locus (APOE) is associated with variations in the age of onset and risk of Alzheimer's disease. The APOE4 allele increases the probability of disease at an earlier age. In contrasL the APOE3 and APOE2 alleles decrease the probability of disease and increase the age of onset. Therefore the metabolism of apolipoprotein E is relevant

Apolipoprotein E (apoE) is an exchangeable apolipoprotein that functions as a ligand for members of the LDL receptor family, promoting lipoprotein clearance from the circulation. Productive receptor binding requires that apoE adopt an LDL receptor-active

Similar promotion of Aβ1-42 fibrillogenesis by native apolipoprotein E ε3 and ε4 isoforms
The apolipoprotein E ε4 allele contributes to the genetic susceptibility underlying a large proportion (~40–60%) of typical, sporadic Alzheimer disease.

Apolipoprotein E is secreted by cultured lipocytes of the rat liver.
Hepatic lipocytes, the retinoid-storing cells of the liver, share several characteristics with vascular smooth muscle cells. To determine whether they also share the characteristic of apolipoprotein E secretion, we have compared the relative mRNA ...

Apolipoprotein E Interferes with IAPP Aggregation and Protects Pericytes from IAPP-Induced Toxicity
Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) has become a primary focus of research after the discovery of its strong linkage to Alzheimer’s disease (AD), where the ApoE4 variant is the highest genetic risk factor for this disease.
