Diagnostic and pathogenetic significance of apolipoprotein disorders in patients with alcoholic fatty liver [PDF]

open access: yesVojnosanitetski Pregled, 2017
Background/Aim. Alcohol is the most common cause of fatty liver. Alcohol metabolism takes place in the liver by alcohol dehydrogenase, to toxic acetaldehyde, with fatty acids accumulation in the liver as a consequence.

Several Human Liver Cell Expressed Apolipoproteins Complement HCV Virus Production with Varying Efficacy Conferring Differential Specific Infectivity to Released Viruses. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
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 ...

The kringle IV type 2 domain variant 4925G>A causes the elusive association signal of the LPA pentanucleotide repeat

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2022
Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] concentrations are regulated by the LPA gene mainly via the large kringle IV-type 2 (KIV-2) copy number variation and multiple causal variants.

Apolipoprotein A‐I induced amyloidosis [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1998
Amyloidosis is characterized by extracellular deposits of protein fibrils with a high content of β‐sheets in secondary structure. The protein forms together with proteoglycans amyloid fibrils causing organ damage and serious morbidity. Intact apolipoprotein A‐I (apoA‐I) is an important protein in lipid metabolism regulating the synthesis and catabolism

The Carboxyl-Terminal Segment of Apolipoprotein A-V Undergoes a Lipid-Induced Conformational Change [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Apolipoprotein (apo) A-V is a 343-residue, multidomain protein that plays an important role in regulation of plasma triglyceride homeostasis. Primary sequence analysis revealed a unique tetraproline sequence (Pro293-Pro296) near the carboxyl terminus of ...

The effect of apolipoprotein(a)-, apolipoprotein E-, and apolipoprotein A4- polymorphisms on quantitative lipoprotein(a) concentrations [PDF]

open access: yesTwin Research, 2000
AbstractThe effects of apolipoprotein (a), apolipoprotein-E, and apolipoprotein-A4 isoforms on quantitative lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels were assessed in a sample of 142 Dutch families consisting of two parents and their adolescent twin offspring. A total heritability of 95% was estimated for plasma Lp(a) concentrations.
