Inheritance of high density lipoprotein and lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase activity.
The role of genetic and environmental factors in the regulation of plasma high density lipoprotein (HDL) was estimated in 17 monozygotic (MZ) and 18 dizygotic (DZ) male twins randomly selected from the Finnish Twin Cohort Study. In addition to HDL cholesterol, we determined the HDL subfractions, HDL2 and HDL3, and the major HDL apoproteins (apo) A-I and A-II. The activities of lipoprotein lipas...
متن کاملChimeras of Hepatic Lipase and Lipoprotein Lipase
Chimeric molecules between human lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and rat hepatic lipase (HL) were used to identify structural elements responsible for functional differences. Based on the close sequence homology with pancreatic lipase, both LPL and HL are believed to have a two-domain structure composed of an aminoterminal (NHz-terminal) domain containing the catalytic Ser-His-Asp triad and a smaller ...
متن کاملRole of Hepatic Lipase and Endothelial Lipase in High-Density Lipoprotein—Mediated Reverse Cholesterol Transport
Reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) constitutes a key part of the atheroprotective properties of high-density lipoproteins (HDL). Hepatic lipase (HL) and endothelial lipase (EL) are negative regulators of plasma HDL cholesterol levels. Although overexpression of EL decreases overall macrophage-to-feces RCT, knockout of both HL and EL leaves RCT essentially unaffected. With respect to important ...
متن کاملRelationship between plasma high-density lipoprotein concentrations and lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase activities in children with hyperlipidaemia.
1. Significant positive correlations were found between the lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase activities of post-heparin plasma samples and plasma high-density-lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol concentrations in 21 children with hyperlipidaemia and six normal adult males. 2. A significant positive correlation was also observed between the two lipase activities and the ratio of HDL cholesterol t...
متن کاملLipoprotein Lipase Increases Low Density Lipoprotein Retention
Lipoprotein lipase (LPL), the rate-limiting enzyme for hydrolysis of plasma lipoprotein triglycerides, is a normal constituent of the arterial wall. We explored whether LPL affects (a) lipoprotein transport across bovine aortic endothelial cells or (b) lipoprotein binding to subendothelial cell matrix (retention). When bovine milk LPL was added to endothelial cell monolayers before addition of ...
