Effect of a novel nutraceutical combination on serum lipoprotein functional profile and circulating PCSK9 [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: A beneficial effect on cardiovascular risk may be obtained by improving lipid-related serum lipoprotein functions such as high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC) and serum cholesterol loading capacity (CLC) and by ...

Bacterial expression and site-directed mutagenesis of a functional recombinant apolipoprotein.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1995
To facilitate structure-function studies of Manduca sexta apolipophorin III (apoLp-III), its nucleotide coding sequence was cloned from a fat body cDNA library by in vitro DNA amplification.

Apolipoprotein distribution in human lipoproteins separated by polyacrylamide gradient gel electrophoresis.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1988
The heterogeneity of serum lipoproteins (excluding very low density (VLDL) and intermediate density (IDL) lipoproteins) and that of lipoproteins secreted by HepG2 cells has been studied by immunoblot analysis of the apolipoprotein composition of the ...

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.

Maternal obesity is associated with the formation of small dense LDL and hypoadiponectinemia in the third trimester [PDF]

, 2013
Context: Maternal obesity is associated with high plasma triglyceride, poor vascular function, and an increased risk for pregnancy complications. In normal-weight pregnant women, higher triglyceride is associated with increased small, dense low-density ...

Phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis is required for secretion of truncated apolipoprotein Bs from McArdle RH7777 cells only when a neutral lipid core is formed

Journal of Lipid Research, 1997
Decreased phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis inhibits the secretion of very low density lipoproteins from hepatocytes (Yao, Z. and D. E. Vance. 1988. J. Biol. Chem. 263: 2998-3004).

Apolipoprotein M [PDF]

, 2004
Apolipoprotein 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).

Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) mRNA abundance in human adipose tissue: relationship to cell size and membrane cholesterol content.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1995
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) has a well-defined role in plasma neutral lipid transport. CETP synthesized by human adipose tissue may contribute to the plasma CETP pool. CETP mRNA abundance increases in subcutaneous adipose tissue in response

Metabolomic Profiling of Statin Use and Genetic Inhibition of HMG-CoA Reductase [PDF]

, 2015
Background Statins are first-line therapy for cardiovascular disease prevention, but their systemic effects across lipoprotein subclasses, fatty acids, and circulating metabolites remain incompletely characterized.
