Apolipoprotein C-III displacement of apolipoprotein E from VLDL: effect of particle size

Apolipoprotein C-III displacement of apolipoprotein E from VLDL: effect of particle size.

ApoC-III and apoE are important determinants of intravascular lipolysis and clearance of triglyceride-rich chylomicrons and VLDL from the blood plasma. Interactions of these two apolipoproteins were studied by adding purified human apoC-III to human plasma at levels observed in hypertriglyceridemic subjects and incubating under specific conditions (2 h, 37 degrees C). As plasma concentrations o...

Apolipoprotein E in VLDL and LDL With Apolipoprotein C‐III is Associated With a Lower Risk of Coronary Heart Disease

BACKGROUND Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) with apolipoprotein C-III (apoC-III) is the lipoprotein species that most strongly predicts initial and recurring coronary heart disease (CHD) events in several cohorts. Thus, a large portion of the CHD risk conferred by LDL may be attributable to LDL that contains apoC-III. Very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and LDL with apoC-III have varying amounts o...

Dose-Dependent Effect of Rosuvastatin on VLDL–Apolipoprotein C-III Kinetics in the Metabolic Syndrome

OBJECTIVE Dysregulated apolipoprotein (apo)C-III metabolism may account for hypertriglyceridemia and increased cardiovascular risk in the metabolic syndrome. This study investigated the dose-dependent effect of rosuvastatin on VLDL apoC-III transport in men with the metabolic syndrome. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Twelve men with the metabolic syndrome were studied in a randomized double-blind...
