The prognostic significance of HDL-associated apolipoproteins in ascitic fluid from patients with cirrhosis and spontaneous bacterial peritonitis [PDF]
Scientific ReportsApolipoproteins (Apo) A-I and A-II are major components of high-density lipoproteins (HDL) with immunomodulatory functions. Low serum apoA-I levels indicate complications of cirrhosis. We hypothesized that HDL-associated apolipoproteins in ascitic fluid (

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