Human plasma high density lipoprotein. Interaction of the cyanogen bromide fragments from apolipoprotein glutamine II (A-II) with phosphatidylcholine.
Apolipoprotein-glutamine(apoLP-Gln-II) is one of the two major protein constituents of human plasma high density lipoproteins (HDL). ApoLP-Gln-II contains two identical chains of 77 amino acids each, which are linked by a single disulfide bond at residue 6. Each chain contains a single methionine at position 26. In the present study we have examined the phospholipid binding properties of apoLPG...
متن کاملHuman apolipoprotein A-II determines plasma triglycerides by regulating lipoprotein lipase activity and high-density lipoprotein proteome.
INTRODUCTION Apolipoprotein (apo) A-II is the second most abundant high-density lipoprotein (HDL) apolipoprotein. We assessed the mechanism involved in the altered postprandial triglyceride-rich lipoprotein metabolism of female human apoA-II-transgenic mice (hapoA-II-Tg mice), which results in up to an 11-fold increase in plasma triglyceride concentration. The relationships between apoA-II, HDL...
متن کاملThe association between small dense low density lipoprotein,apolipoprotein B, apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A1 ratio and coronary artery stenosis
Abstract Background: Recently, small dense low density lipoprotein (sdLDL) has been highlighted as a new risk factor for the coronary artery disease (CAD).Small dense LDLs are believed to be atherogenic since these particles are taken up more easily by arterial wall. They are readily oxidized and have reduced affinity for low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor and increased affinity...
متن کاملPrevention of low density lipoprotein aggregation by high density lipoprotein or apolipoprotein A-I.
We have shown previously that low density lipoprotein (LDL) subjected to vortexing forms self-aggregates that are avidly phagocytosed by macrophages. That phagocytic uptake is mediated by the LDL receptor. We now show that LDL self-aggregation is strongly inhibited (80-95%) by the presence of high density lipoprotein (HDL) or apolipoprotein (apo) A-I. Another type of LDL aggregation, namely tha...
متن کاملLow-density lipoprotein, non-high-density lipoprotein, and apolipoprotein B as targets of lipid-lowering therapy.
Although low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is widely recognized as the major atherogenic lipoprotein and the primary target of lipid-lowering therapy,1 other lipoprotein species nonetheless appear to be involved in atherogenesis. These include very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL), intermediate-density lipoproteins (IDL), and highdensity lipoproteins (HDL). Both VLDL and IDL are triglyceride-rich li...
