Apolipoprotein D—An atypical apolipoprotein

Progress in Lipid Research, 1991
The structure of ApoD and its sites of synthesis have been discovered. These characteristics differ from those of the other apolipoproteins. The role of ApoD in the plasma lipoprotein system remains to be discovered, but the recent, rapid increase in our knowledge of this protein suggests that it plays an important role in the homeostasis or ...

The apolipoprotein story

Atherosclerosis Supplements, 2006
The importance of different lipid and lipoprotein measurements, including LDL particle concentration and levels of apolipoproteins and triglycerides, in the prediction of future cardiac events continues to be debated. In summary, apo B is a strong, independent predictor of initial and recurrent coronary events, even during statin treatment, and recent ...

Apolipoprotein(a) and atherogenesis

Pathology, 1992
Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) consists of a unique apolipoprotein, apolipoprotein(a), (apo(a)) linked by a disulphide bridge to apolipoprotein B of low density lipoprotein (LDL). Apo(a) is homologous with plasminogen and exhibits genetic polymorphism with the commoner phenotypes due to larger forms being associated with lower plasma levels and the less common

Update on apolipoprotein B

Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2021
Purpose of review The 2019 European Society of Cardiology/European Atherosclerosis Society Guidelines concluded that apolipoprotein B (apoB) was a more accurate measure of cardiovascular risk and a better guide to the adequacy of lipid lowering than low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) or non-high-density lipoprotein ...

Apolipoprotein D

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Protein Structure and Molecular Enzymology, 2000
Apolipoprotein D (apoD) is a 29-kDa glycoprotein that is primarily associated with high density lipoproteins in human plasma. It is an atypical apolipoprotein and, based on its primary structure, apoD is predicted to be a member of the lipocalin family. Lipocalins adopt a beta-barrel tertiary structure and transport small hydrophobic ligands.

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 ...

Die Apolipoproteine

Klinische Wochenschrift, 1982
Twelve different apolipoproteins have been described in human serum. Apo A-I and apo A-II are essential for the structure of the HDL particles and for the function of LCAT activity. Apo B is the main protein in LDL but does also occur in the triglyceride-rich particles. Apo B represents the binding protein for the LDL-receptor pathway.
