Very Low Density Lipoprotein (VLDL)
Triglyceride (TG) or more accurately triacylglycerol is simply a compound of three acyl groups (fatty acids) attached to a glycerol molecule. They are easily measured in the laboratory and reported as serum TG level: it actually refers to all of the TG that are being trafficked within all of the lipoproteins that exist in a deciliter of plasma. A physiologic fasting TG concentration is on avera...
متن کاملHepatic apolipoprotein E expression promotes very low density lipoprotein-apolipoprotein B production in vivo in mice.
In addition to its role in the uptake of apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing lipoproteins, apoE promotes hepatic very low density lipoprotein-triglyceride (VLDL-TG) production in animal models. However, it is not known if apoE increases the amount of TG per VLDL particle or the number of VLDL particles secreted. VLDL-apoB production is a measure of the rate of VLDL particle secretion. We determi...
متن کاملAbnormal low density lipoprotein metabolism in apolipoprotein E deficiency.
Apolipoprotein(apo) E deficiency is an inherited disease characterized by type III hyperlipoproteinemia and less than 1% normal plasma apoE concentration. The role of apoE in LDL metabolism was investigated by quantitating the metabolism of radiolabeled normal and apoE-deficient LDL in both normal and apoE-deficient subjects. ApoE deficiency resulted in an accumulation of plasma IDL, and a decr...
متن کاملVery low-density lipoprotein (VLDL)-induced signals mediating aldosterone production.
Aldosterone, secreted by the adrenal zona glomerulosa, enhances sodium retention, thus increasing blood volume and pressure. Excessive production of aldosterone results in high blood pressure and contributes to cardiovascular and renal disease, stroke and visual loss. Hypertension is also associated with obesity, which is correlated with other serious health risks as well. Although weight gain ...
متن کاملApolipoprotein E participates in the regulation of very low density lipoprotein-triglyceride secretion by the liver.
ApoE-deficient mice on low fat diet show hepatic triglyceride accumulation and a reduced very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) triglyceride production rate. To establish the role of apoE in the regulation of hepatic VLDL production, the human APOE3 gene was introduced into apoE-deficient mice by cross-breeding with APOE3 transgenics (APOE3/apoe-/- mice) or by adenoviral transduction. APOE3 was ex...
