Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) regulates the plasma levels of triglyceride and HDL. Three aspects are reviewed. 1) Clinical implications of human LPL gene variations: common mutations and their effects on plasma lipids and coronary heart disease are discussed.

Lipoprotein lipase and acid lipase activity in rabbit brain microvessels.
A preparation of cerebral microvessels was used to demonstrate the presence of lipoprotein lipase and acid lipase activity in the microvasculature of rabbit brain. Microvessels, consisting predominantly of capillaries, small arterioles, and venules, were

Striated muscle gene therapy for the treatment of lipoprotein lipase deficiency. [PDF]
Excessive circulating triglycerides due to reduction or loss of lipoprotein lipase activity contribute to hypertriglyceridemia and increased risk for pancreatitis.

Stabilizing lipoprotein lipase [PDF]
Evidence from several prospective observational studies points toward the independent predictive value of plasma triglycerides in assessing cardiovascular risk (1). Hence, plasma triglycerides are increasingly targeted as a specific cardiovascular treatment outcome.

Over-expression of human lipoprotein lipase in mouse mammary glands leads to reduction of milk triglyceride and delayed growth of suckling pups. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The mammary gland is a conserved site of lipoprotein lipase expression across species and lipoprotein lipase attachment to the luminal surface of mammary gland vascular endothelial cells has been implicated in the direction of circulating ...

Homology of lipoprotein lipase to pancreatic lipase. [PDF]
Bovine milk lipoprotein lipase was subjected to amino acid sequence analysis. The first 19 amino-terminal residues were Asp-Arg-Ile-Thr-Gly-Gly-Lys-Asp-Phe-Arg-Asp-Ile-Glu-Ser-Lys-Phe-Ala-Leu- Arg. In addition, reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography of a tryptic digest of reduced and alkylated lipase resolved a number of peptides, five ...

Lipoprotein lipase is active as a monomer [PDF]
Significance Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) plays a central role in plasma lipid metabolism, hydrolyzing the triglycerides in lipoproteins and releasing fatty acid nutrients for vital tissues. LPL is synthesized by adipocytes and myocytes and secreted into the interstitial spaces, whereupon it is captured by an endothelial cell protein, GPIHBP1 ...

Hepatic APOF transcript levels correlate inversely with plasma TG and hepatic steatosis in humans. ApoF expression in mice promotes VLDL‐TG production and lipoprotein remnant clearance in mice. Abstract Background NAFLD affects nearly 25% of the global population. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of death among patients with NAFLD,

The role of SMLR1 in lipid metabolism (high fat + cholesterol diet in mice) Abstract Background and Aims The assembly and secretion of VLDL from the liver, a pathway that affects hepatic and plasma lipids, remains incompletely understood. We set out to identify players in the VLDL biogenesis pathway by identifying genes that are co‐expressed with the ...

The mechanism of heparin stimulation of rat adipocyte lipoprotein lipase
Free fat cells and stromal-vascular cells were prepared from rat adipose tissue by incubation with collagenase. NH4OH-NH4Cl extracts of acetone-ether powders prepared from fat cells contained lipoprotein lipase activity but extracts of stromal-vascular ...
