Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein: a multifunctional protein.
Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) is a heterodimeric protein that transfers neutral lipids between membranes in vitro. Absence of this lipid transfer activity in the microsomes of abetalipoproteinemia patients established its pivotal function in lipoprotein assembly. Recent studies indicate that the lipid transfer activity is involved in importing triglycerides into the lumen of th...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of dual inhibitors for phospholipid transfer protein and microsomal triglyceride transfer protein.
Phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) plays an important role in atherogenesis and lipoprotein metabolism. PLTP exerts its functions intracellularly and extracellularly. Both PLTP and microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) have been shown to regulate the secretion of apolipoprotein B (apoB) in hepatocytes. We have previously reported the characterization of inhibitors that selectively in...
متن کاملMultiple functions of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein
Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) was first identified as a major cellular protein capable of transferring neutral lipids between membrane vesicles. Its role as an essential chaperone for the biosynthesis of apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing triglyceride-rich lipoproteins was established after the realization that abetalipoproteinemia patients carry mutations in the MTTP gene resu...
متن کاملMicrosomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) regulation in HepG2 cells: insulin negatively regulates MTP gene expression.
The microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) is a heterodimeric lipid transfer protein that is required for the assembly and secretion of apoB-containing lipoproteins. In this study, four factors that modulate lipid and lipoprotein metabolism were tested for their ability to regulate MTP levels in HepG2 cells. Of the factors tested, only insulin (> or = 10(-9) M), and high concentrations ...
متن کاملRegulation of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein by apolipoprotein A-IV in newborn swine intestinal epithelial cells.
Apolipoprotein (apo) A-IV overexpression enhances chylomicron (CM) assembly and secretion in newborn swine intestinal epithelial cells by producing larger particles (Lu S, Yao Y, Cheng X, Mitchell S, Leng S, Meng S, Gallagher JW, Shelness GS, Morris GS, Mahan J, Frase S, Mansbach CM, Weinberg RB, Black DD. J Biol Chem 281: 3473-3483, 2006). To determine the impact of apo A-IV on microsomal trig...
