Apolipoprotein E and the Apolipoprotein E-Deficient Mouse

Annual Review of Nutrition, 1995
Apolipoprotein E (apoE) is one of several lipoprotein transfer genes. A primary function of this protein is the mediation of receptor-mediated lipoprotein removal from the blood. Several studies have demonstrated that genetic variation at the apoE locus is associated with an increased risk of developing atherosclerosis, and recent studies implicate ...

Apolipoprotein E: cholesterol transport protein with expanding role in cell biology.

Science, 1988
Apolipoprotein E is a plasma protein that serves as a ligand for low density lipoprotein receptors and, through its interaction with these receptors, participates in the transport of cholesterol and other lipids among various cells of the body.

Apolipoprotein E and atherosclerosis

Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2000
Apolipoprotein E plays a key protective role in atherosclerosis. Its capacity to safeguard against this disease can be attributed to at least three distinct functions. First, plasma apolipoprotein E maintains overall plasma cholesterol homeostasis by facilitating efficient hepatic uptake of lipoprotein remnants.

Apolipoprotein in E in Myasthenia Gravis

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1998
It is believed that apo E may moderate T lymphocytes by activation of mitogens or antigens. In that way, it has an influence on immune processes and it is reasonable to study the relationship between apo E genotypes and myasthenia gravis phenotypes. We tried to find any feature connected to the development of a different intensity of myasthenia gravis.

Apolipoprotein E in neurology

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1996
Apolipoprotein E became relevant for neurologists in 1993 when the association of the apolipoprotein E-epsilon 4 allele with familial and sporadic late-onset Alzheimer disease was reported. Since that time, more than 100 confirmations and many research papers have appeared.

Astrocytes synthesize apolipoprotein E and metabolize apolipoprotein E-containing lipoproteins

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1987
We have previously demonstrated that astrocytes synthesize and secrete apolipoprotein E in situ. In the present work, primary cultures of rat brain astrocytes were used to study apolipoprotein E synthesis, secretion, and metabolism in vitro. The astrocytes in culture contained immunoreactive apolipoprotein E in the area of the Golgi apparatus ...

Genotyping of Apolipoprotein E

2003
Apolipoprotein E (apo E) is a 299-amino acid plasma protein involved in cholesterol transport and is found in chylomicrons, very low density lipopro-tein, intermediate-density lipoprotein, and high-density lipoprotein (1,1).

[10] Quantitation of apolipoprotein E

1996
Quantitation of apoE has proved to be extremely useful in studies of the regulation of apoE synthesis and metabolism. Measurement of serum apoE and/or its distribution among the lipoprotein classes may have clinical utility, although this remains to be established.
