Apolipoproteins and cancer [PDF]
Cancer Medicine, 2019 The role of apolipoproteins in cardiovascular disease has been well investigated, but their participation in cancer has only been explored in a few published studies which showed a close link with certain kinds of cancer.

Gene, 2020 ApoD is a 25 to 30 kDa glycosylated protein, member of the lipocalin superfamily. As a transporter of several small hydrophobic molecules, its known biological functions are mostly associated to lipid metabolism and neuroprotection. ApoD is a multi-ligand, multi-function protein that is involved lipid trafficking, food intake, inflammation ...

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 ...

Lipids in Health and Disease, 2004 AbstractApolipoprotein M (apoM) is a 26-kDa protein that is mainly associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in human plasma, with a small proportion present in triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TGRLP) and low-density lipoproteins (LDL). Human apoM gene is located in p21.31 on chromosome 6 (chromosome 17, in mouse).

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

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

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 ...

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.

Nanomaterials, 2020 Apolipoproteins are critical structural and functional components of lipoproteins, which are large supramolecular assemblies composed predominantly of lipids and proteins, and other biomolecules such as nucleic acids.
