Apolipoprotein £ and Epilepsy [PDF]
Annals of Clinical Biochemistry: International Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 1996 The overall frequencies of the apolipoprotein f2, f3 and f4 alleles in the epilepsy patients were no different to those of the control group (Table 1). Subgroups consisting of patients with either an unknown aetiology for epilepsy (71% of patients), a family history of epilepsy (21% of patients), idiopathic generalized epilepsy, or cryptogenic partial ...

Apolipoprotein E and familial longevity [PDF]
Neurobiology of Aging, 2013 Exceptional longevity is associated with substantial heritability. The ε4 allele in apolipoprotein E and the linked G allele in rs2075650 of TOMM40 have been associated with increased mortality and the ε2 allele with decreased mortality, although inconsistently.

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

Apolipoprotein E and renal disease [PDF]
American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 2004 Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is a major constituent of plasma lipoproteins with many biological actions of great significance. Beyond the known influence of ApoE polymorphisms on serum lipid profile, the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, and the development of neurodegenerative disorders, ApoE also has a major role in the pathogenesis and progression of a ...
