Influence of different fat emulsions with 10 or 20% MCT/LCT or LCT on lipoproteins in plasma of patients after abdominal surgery [PDF]

, 1998
In patients after elective abdominal surgery, different fat emulsions were used to compare their efficacy in total parenteral nutrition and in normalizing plasma lipoprotein levels.

Gain and loss events in the evolution of the apolipoprotein family in vertebrata

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019
Background Various apolipoproteins widely distributed among vertebrata play key roles in lipid metabolism and have a direct correlation with human diseases as diagnostic markers.

Apolipoproteins of high, low, and very low density lipoproteins in human bile

Journal of Lipid Research, 1983
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 ...

Hepatitis C virus relies on lipoproteins for its life cycle [PDF]

, 2016
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infects over 150 million people worldwide. In most cases, HCV infection becomes chronic causing liver disease ranging from fibrosis to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.

ABCA1 redistributes membrane cholesterol independent of apolipoprotein interactions

Journal of Lipid Research, 2003
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.

The amphipathic helix in the exchangeable apolipoproteins: a review of secondary structure and function.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1992
Site-directed mutagenesis and other molecular biology-based techniques are now available for probing the amphipathic alpha helix structural motif in the exchangeable apolipoproteins. Here we survey the published literature on lipid-binding and functional

Lipid-free Antigen B subunits from echinococcus granulosus: oligomerization, ligand binding, and membrane interaction properties [PDF]

, 2015
Background: The hydatid disease parasite Echinococcus granulosus has a restricted lipid metabolism, and needs to harvest essential lipids from the host.

The effect of 17β-estradiol plus norethisterone acetate treatment on lipoprotein (a), atherogenic and anti-atherogenic apolipoproteins levels in postmenopausal women: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

Experimental Gerontology, 2023
Background and aim: The administration of 17β-estradiol plus norethisterone acetate seems to confer women cardioprotection, however, its impact on lipoprotein (a) and apolipoproteins' concentrations remains unclear.

Simultaneous LC/MS/MS quantification of eight apolipoproteins in normal and hypercholesterolemic mouse plasma[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2019
Apolipoproteins are major structural and functional constituents of lipoprotein particles. As modulators of lipid metabolism, adipose tissue biology, and energy homeostasis, apolipoproteins may serve as biomarkers or potential therapeutic targets for ...

A comprehensive map of single-base polymorphisms in the hypervariable LPA kringle IV type 2 copy number variation region[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2019
Lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] concentrations are among the strongest genetic risk factors for cardiovascular disease and present pronounced interethnic and interindividual differences.
