Postprandial lipoprotein metabolism: VLDL vs chylomicrons [PDF]

open access: yesClinica Chimica Acta, 2011
Since Zilversmit first proposed postprandial lipemia as the most common risk of cardiovascular disease, chylomicrons (CM) and CM remnants have been thought to be the major lipoproteins which are increased in the postprandial hyperlipidemia. However, it has been shown over the last two decades that the major increase in the postprandial lipoproteins ...

VLDL receptor gene therapy for reducing atherogenic lipoproteins

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2023
Over the past 40 years, there has been considerable research into the management and treatment of atherogenic lipid disorders. Although the majority of treatments and management strategies for cardiovascular disease (CVD) center around targeting low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), there is mounting evidence for the residual CVD risk attributed

ApoAV Reduces Plasma Triglycerides by Inhibiting Very Low Density Lipoprotein-Triglyceride (VLDL-TG) Production and Stimulating Lipoprotein Lipase-mediated VLDL-TG Hydrolysis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2004
ApoAV has been discovered recently as a novel modifier of triglyceride (TG) metabolism, but the pathways involved are currently unknown. To gain insight into the function of apoAV, adenovirus-mediated gene transfer of murine apoa5 to C57Bl/6 mice was employed.

Heparin binding triggers human VLDL remodeling by circulating lipoprotein lipase: Relevance to VLDL functionality in health and disease

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2022
Hydrolysis of VLDL triacylglycerol (TG) by lipoprotein lipase (LpL) is a major step in energy metabolism and VLDL-to-LDL maturation. Most functional LpL is anchored to the vascular endothelium, yet a small amount circulates on TG-rich lipoproteins. As circulating LpL has low catalytic activity, its role in VLDL remodeling is unclear. We use pre-heparin

Very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL)-induced signals mediating aldosterone production [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Endocrinology, 2017
Aldosterone, secreted by the adrenal zona glomerulosa, enhances sodium retention, thus increasing blood volume and pressure. Excessive production of aldosterone results in high blood pressure and contributes to cardiovascular and renal disease, stroke and visual loss.

Hepatic Golgi lipoproteins: precursors to plasma lipoproteins in hypercholesterolemic rats

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1982
Two classes of nascent lipoproteins can be isolated from Golgi apparatus-rich fractions of liver from hypercholesterolemic rats. Golgi very low density lipoproteins (VLDL, d less than 1.006 g/ml) are enriched in cholesteryl esters and are similar in many

Postprandial apoE isoform and conformational changes associated with VLDL lipolysis products modulate monocyte inflammation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
ObjectivePostprandial hyperlipemia, characterized by increased circulating very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) and circulating lipopolysaccharide (LPS), has been proposed as a mechanism of vascular injury.

Biosynthesis of lymph and plasma lipoprotein apoproteins by isolated perfused rat liver and intestine

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1973
The ability of rat intestine and liver to synthesize the various apoproteins of plasma lipoproteins was investigated. After the individual isolated organs were perfused with blood containing [3H]lysine, chylomicrons plus very low density lipoproteins ...

Relation of hyperlipidemia in serum and loss of high density lipoproteins in urine in the nephrotic syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
The mechanism leading to hyperlipidemia in the nephrotic syndrome is not fully understood but may be related in part to loss of high density lipoproteins in the urine of patients with nephrosis.

Characterization of a very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL)-associated cytotoxic factor [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Cancer, 1981
A VLDL-associated cytotoxic factor was isolated from sera of pregnant rats and characterized. The inhibitory effect of this factor on the macromolecular synthesis of rat prostate adenocarcinoma cells (PA-III) was also examined. VLDL (Sf 20-400) was subfractionated by differential ultracentrifugal flotation and the Sf 100-400 fraction was associated ...
