Abstract excerpt
We have recently shown that the predominant hypertriglyceridemia in human apolipoprotein C1 (APOC1) transgenic mice is mainly explained by apoCI-mediated inhibition of the lipoprotein lipase (LPL)-dependent triglyceride (TG)-hydrolysis pathway. Since the very-low-density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLr) and apoCIII are potent modifiers of LPL activity, our current aim was to study whether the lipolysis-inhibiting...
