Hepatic apolipoprotein E expression promotes very low density lipoprotein-apolipoprotein B production in vivo in mice
1 Oct 2000
Abstract excerpt
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 determined the effects of...
