A narrative review of impacts of apolipoproteins on atherosclerotic coronary plaques [PDF]
Apolipoproteins are structural components of lipoproteins involved in assembly, enzyme regulation, structural integrity, and receptor binding. Apoprotein(a) forms lipoprotein(a), apolipoprotein A-I drives reverse cholesterol transport, apolipoprotein B ...

Exploring the evolving role of apolipoproteins in oncology: global trends and emerging frontiers [PDF]
Background Metabolic reprogramming, especially lipid metabolism, is crucial in cancer progression and treatment resistance. Apolipoproteins are crucial targets for research as they regulate autophagy, oxidative stress, and chemoresistance.

Several Human Liver Cell Expressed Apolipoproteins Complement HCV Virus Production with Varying Efficacy Conferring Differential Specific Infectivity to Released Viruses. [PDF]
Apolipoprotein E (ApoE), an exchangeable apolipoprotein, is necessary for production of infectious Hepatitis C virus (HCV) particles. However, ApoE is not the only liver-expressed apolipoprotein and the role of other apolipoproteins for production of ...

Smoking and apolipoprotein levels: A meta-analysis of published data
Background: Apolipoproteins are major components of lipoproteins such as high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and very-low-density lipoprotein and are considered nontraditional markers in the risk assessment for cardiovascular disease.

The Roles of Fatty Acids and Apolipoproteins in the Kidneys
The kidneys are organs that require energy from the metabolism of fatty acids and glucose; several studies have shown that the kidneys are metabolically active tissues with an estimated energy requirement similar to that of the heart.

Like rat C apolipoproteins, each of the C apolipoproteins from human blood plasma (C-I, C-II, C-III-1, and C-III-2) bound to small chylomicrons from mesenteric lymph of estradiol-treated rats and inhibited their uptake by the isolated perfused rat liver.

Apolipoproteins of high, low, and very low density lipoproteins in human bile
We tested the hypothesis that apolipoproteins, the protein constituents of plasma lipoproteins, are secreted into bile. We examined human gallbladder bile obtained at surgery (N = 54) from subjects with (N = 44) and without (N = 10) gallstones and ...

ABCA1 redistributes membrane cholesterol independent of apolipoprotein interactions
ATP binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) mediates the transport of phospholipids and cholesterol from cells to lipid-poor HDL apolipoproteins. Cholesterol loading of cells induces ABCA1, implicating cholesterol as its major physiologic substrate.
