Structure dynamics of ApoA-I amyloidogenic variants in small HDL increase their ability to mediate cholesterol efflux
2020-04-10
Abstract excerpt
Specific mutations in Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) are responsible for a late-onset systemic amyloidosis. Carriers do not exhibit increased cardiovascular disease risk despite reduced levels of ApoA-I/ HDL-cholesterol. To explain this paradox, we show that the HDL particle profile of L75P and L174S patients presents a higher relative abundance of the 8.4 nm vs 9.6 nm particles, and...
