Isolation and characterization of human apolipoprotein M-containing lipoproteins.
Apolipoprotein M (apoM) is a novel apolipoprotein with unknown function. In this study, we established a method for isolating apoM-containing lipoproteins and studied their composition and the effect of apoM on HDL function. ApoM-containing lipoproteins were isolated from human plasma with immunoaffinity chromatography and compared with lipoproteins lacking apoM. The apoM-containing lipoprotein...
متن کاملOpposing effects of apolipoprotein m on catabolism of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins and atherosclerosis.
RATIONALE Plasma apolipoprotein (apo)M is mainly associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL). HDL-bound apoM is antiatherogenic in vitro. However, plasma apoM is not associated with coronary heart disease in humans, perhaps because of a positive correlation with plasma low-density lipoprotein (LDL). OBJECTIVE We explored putative links between apoM and very-low-density (VLDL)/LDL metabolis...
متن کاملHuman apolipoprotein A-II associates with triglyceride-rich lipoproteins in plasma and impairs their catabolism.
Postprandial hypertriglyceridemia and low plasma HDL levels, which are principal features of the metabolic syndrome, are displayed by transgenic mice expressing human apolipoprotein A-II (hapoA-II). In these mice, hypertriglyceridemia results from the inhibition of lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase activities by hapoA-II carried on VLDL. This study aimed to determine whether the association...
متن کاملSynthesis, intracellular processing, and signal peptide of human apolipoprotein E.
Northern blotting analysis has shown apo-E mRNA synthesis by human liver, HepG2 cells, and primary cultures of human monocyte macrophages but not by the macrophage-like cell line U937 and normal or transformed human fibroblasts. Cell-free translation has shown that the primary translation product of apo-E consists of one major and one minor isoprotein of apparent Mr = 28,500 and isoelectric poi...
متن کاملPlasma Apolipoprotein-M (ApoM) Response to a Circuit Resistance Training Program
Apolipoprotein M (Apo-M) is a human novel protein of apolipoprotein classes and highly expressed in liver and kidney tissues. ApoM is mainly associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and act as a chaperone for sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), promotes mobilization of cellular cholesterol, formation of larger-size of pre β-HDL, and a new biomarker in sepsis. The level of apoM in plasma/s...
