Apolipoprotein E Polymorphism in an Iranian Hypercholestrolemic Population
Apolipoprotein E (apo E) is a structural constituent of several serum lipoprotein classes. It plays an important role in lipid metabolism by acting as a ligand for low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and chylomicron remnant receptors. Three common alleles called e2, e3 and e4 have been described, which code for three protein isoforms (E2, E3 and E4). The polymorphism is clinically significant, and it...
متن کاملApolipoprotein E Gene Polymorphism and Serum Lipid Profile in Saudi Patients with Psoriasis
BACKGROUND/AIM Apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene variants have been reported to influence psoriasis risk. However, data is limited to a few ethnicities and no similar study has been performed in middle eastern populations. We investigated this association in Saudi psoriasis patients. METHODS Saudi subjects (294) were genotyped for APOE gene using APOE StripAssay kit. RESULTS The frequencies of a...
متن کاملInfluence of apolipoprotein E polymorphism on apolipoprotein B-100 metabolism in normolipemic subjects.
This study examined apolipoprotein (apo) B metabolism in normolipemic subjects homozygous for the apo E2 (n = 4), apo E3 (n = 5), or apo E4 (n = 5) phenotype. Radioiodinated very low density lipoprotein (VLDL1) (ultracentrifuge flotation rate [Sf] 60-400) and VLDL2 (Sf 20-60) were injected into volunteers and the conversion of apo B was followed through intermediate density lipoprotein (IDL) to...
