ApoA-I deficiency in mice is associated with redistribution of apoA-II and aggravated AApoAII amyloidosis.

Apolipoprotein A-II (apoA-II) is the second major apolipoprotein following apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) in HDL. ApoA-II has multiple physiological functions and can form senile amyloid fibrils (AApoAII) in mice. Most circulating apoA-II is present in lipoprotein A-I/A-II. To study the influence of apoA-I on apoA-II and AApoAII amyloidosis, apoA-I-deficient (C57BL/6J.Apoa1⁻/⁻) mice were used. Apo...

HDL/ApoA-1 infusion and ApoA-1 gene therapy in atherosclerosis

The HDL hypothesis stating that simply raising HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) may produce cardiovascular benefits has been questioned recently based on several randomized clinical trials using CETP inhibitors or niacin to raise HDL-C levels. However, extensive pre-clinical data support the vascular protective effects of administration of exogenous ApoA-1 containing preβ-HDL like particles. Several sma...

ApoA-1 in Diabetes: Damaged Goods

Diabetes is a major risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis. In addition to increased risk of stroke, myocardial infarction, and peripheral vascular disease, diabetics suffer from a particularly aggressive form of atherosclerosis with greater in-hospital mortality following myocardial infarction and a higher incidence of heart failure, if they survive (1–3). While diabetics often hav...

Different Functional and Structural Characteristics between ApoA-I and ApoA-4 in Lipid-Free and Reconstituted HDL State: ApoA-4 Showed Less Anti-Atherogenic Activity

Apolipoprotein A-I and A-IV are protein constituents of high-density lipoproteins although their functional difference in lipoprotein metabolism is still unclear. To compare anti-atherogenic properties between apoA-I and apoA-4, we characterized both proteins in lipid-free and lipid-bound state. In lipid-free state, apoA4 showed two distinct bands, around 78 and 67 Å on native gel electrophores...

Differential tissue-specific expression of human apoA-I and apoA-II.

To evaluate the sources of high density lipoprotein (HDL) particles containing only apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), the synthesis of apoA-I and apolipoprotein A-II (apoA-II) was examined in human liver and small intestine as well as the human intestinally derived cell line, Caco-2. Human liver contained apoA-I, apoA-II as well as apolipoprotein B (apoB) mRNA. In contrast, human adult small intesti...
