Assembly and secretion of hepatic very-low-density lipoprotein [PDF]
In contrast to water-soluble fuels such as glucose or ketone bodies, the use of lipids as an energy source for tissues has required the development of complex structures for their transport through the aqueous plasma. In the case of endogenously synthesized triacylglycerol this is achieved by the assembly and secretion of hepatic VLDL which provides ...

We demonstrate here that hepatic triglyceride lipase (HTGL) enhances VLDL degradation in cultured cells by a LDL receptor-mediated mechanism. VLDL binding at 4°C and degradation at 37°C by normal fibroblasts was stimulated by HTGL in a dose-dependent ...

"EFFECT OF PROGESTERONE AND LOVASTATIN ON THE SECRETION OF VERY LOW DENSITY LIPOPROTEIN 1 AND 2 IN THE NORMAL GUINEA PIG MODEL" [PDF]
Liver secretes a large range of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) particles of different sizes and Svedberg flotation rates (Sf). In plasma VLDL is converted to low density lipoprotein (LDL)which in turn plays an important role in the development of ...

Apolipoprotein B and triacylglycerol secretion in human triacylglycerol hydrolase transgenic mice
Apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing lipoproteins play a critical role in whole body lipid homeostasis and the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. The assembly of hepatic apoB-containing lipoproteins, VLDL, is governed by the availability of lipids, including

Effect of a high intake of conjugated linoleic acid on lipoprotein levels in healthy human subjects [PDF]
Background -Trans fatty acids are produced either by industrial hydrogenation or by biohydrogenation in the rumens of cows and sheep. Industrial trans fatty acids lower high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, raise low-density lipoprotein (LDL ...

Serum pseudocholinesterase and very‐low‐density lipoprotein metabolism
AbstractSerum pseudocholinesterase (PChE) was discovered in 1932. Since this protein mimics many of the catalytic properties of acetylcholinesterase, it has traditionally been referred to as PChE, even though its true biological function is unknown.

Characterization of very low density lipoprotein from Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic rabbits.
We investigated the properties of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) from two types of Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic (WHHL) rabbits: one with a high incidence of coronary atherosclerosis (type 1), and the other with a low incidence (type 2).

Influence of different fat emulsions with 10 or 20% MCT/LCT or LCT on lipoproteins in plasma of patients after abdominal surgery [PDF]
In patients after elective abdominal surgery, different fat emulsions were used to compare their efficacy in total parenteral nutrition and in normalizing plasma lipoprotein levels.

Characterization of Chicken Portomicron Remnant and Very Low Density Lipoprotein Remnant
Portomicron remnant and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) remnant in chickens were prepared by the method using ultracentrifugation (d<1.019) following an in vitro incubation of portomicron or VLDL prepared from chicken plasma with chicken ...

Effects of dalcetrapib in patients with a recent acute coronary syndrome [PDF]
In observational analyses, higher levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol have been associated with a lower risk of coronary heart disease events.
