Isolation and characterization of apolipoprotein B48-containing lipoproteins with a monoclonal antibody against apolipoprotein B48.
AIM Remnant lipoproteins are well known to play a pivotal role in atherosclerosis. In patients with postprandial dyslipidemia, metabolic pathways for exogenous lipoproteins are generally disturbed, resulting in accumulation of chylomicron remnants. Although it has been difficult to make a specific antibody against apolipoprotein B48 (apoB48) , a constituent of exogenous lipoproteins, we succeed...
متن کاملPhosphorylation is a regulatory mechanism in apolipoprotein B mRNA editing.
The editing of apolipoprotein B (apoB) mRNA is under tissue-specific, developmental and metabolic regulation. We found that multiple protein kinase inhibitors or activators increased apoB mRNA editing up to 2.5-fold in Caco-2 cells and 3-8-fold in McA7777 and FAO rat cells respectively. The phosphorylation-agent-induced modulation is independent of the apolipoprotein B editing catalytic subunit...
متن کاملInsulin promotes the biosynthesis and secretion of apolipoprotein B-48 by altering apolipoprotein B mRNA editing.
Long-term insulin treatment selectively stimulates secretion of the truncated form of apolipoprotein B (apoB), apoB-48, from primary rat hepatocytes in culture. Chronic treatment with insulin at 400 ng/ml causes a 3-fold increase in total apoB secretion, with apoB-48 making up about 75% of that increase. apo-B-48 is the protein product generated by translation of full-length apoB mRNA which has...
متن کاملCharacterization of apolipoprotein B mRNA editing from rabbit intestine.
Apolipoprotein (apo) B-48 is generated by a unique physiological process. Cytidine 6,666 of the apo B primary transcript is posttranscriptionally converted to a uridine by an RNA editing mechanism that transforms the codon for glutamine 2,153 to a termination codon. The editing reaction can be duplicated in a cell-free extract. In this study, the apo B-48 mRNA editing activity derived from part...
متن کاملSusceptibility to atherosclerosis in mice expressing exclusively apolipoprotein B48 or apolipoprotein B100.
All classes of lipoproteins considered to be atherogenic contain apo-B100 or apo-B48. However, there is a distinct paucity of data regarding whether lipoproteins containing apo-B48 or apo-B100 differ in their intrinsic ability to promote the development of atherosclerosis. To address this issue, we compared the extent of atherosclerosis in three groups of animals: apo-E-deficient mice (apo-B+/+...
