Abstract excerpt
We investigated the roles of lipoprotein lipase and apolipoprotein E (apoE) secreted from human monocyte-derived macrophages in the uptake of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL). ApoCII-deficient VLDL were isolated from a patient with apoCII deficiency. The lipolytic conversion to higher density and the degradation of the apoCII-deficient VLDL by macrophages were very slight, whereas the addition of apoCII...
