Plasma triglyceride concentrations are determined by the balance between production of the triglyceride-rich lipoproteins VLDL and chylomicrons in liver and intestine, and their lipoprotein lipase-mediated clearance in peripheral tissues. In the last decade, the group of Angiopoietin-like proteins
Hypertriglyceridemia is a risk factor for a series of diseases, such as cardiovascular disease (CVD), diabetes and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Angiopoietin-like proteins (ANGPTLs) family, especially ANGPTL3, ANGPTL4 and ANGPTL8, which regulate lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity, play
Macrophages in infected tissues may sense microbial molecules that significantly alter their metabolism. In a seeming paradox, these critical host defense cells often respond by increasing glucose catabolism while simultaneously storing fatty acids (FA) as triglycerides (TAG) in lipid droplets. We
An improved understanding of the characteristics of proinsulin and its intermediate conversion products has resulted from the use of novel assays for distinguishing these molecules from insulin. Use of such assays may help clarify the role of insulin deficiency in non-insulin-dependent diabetes
Angiopoietin-like 3(Angptl3)-deficiency results in abnormally low lipid levels in mice. Angptl3-deficient mice showed enhanced very low density lipoprotein(VLDL) clearance compared with wild-type mice. Recombinant human ANGPTL3 protein inhibited lipoprotein lipase(LPL) activity in vitro, suggesting
UNASSIGNED
The aim of the study was to evaluate the correlation between angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8) and metabolic parameters in non-diabetic healthy humans.
UNASSIGNED
We enrolled 30 healthy Japanese adults (25 men and five women). After 9 h of fasting, we collected blood samples and
OBJECTIVE
Dyslipidemia is common in liver transplant recipients. This retrospective study investigates whether donors play a role.
METHODS
Prospectively collected data of donors and recipients of deceased-donor liver transplantation (DDLT) and living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT) were reviewed.
BACKGROUND
We found a unique cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) deficient case with markedly elevated serum triglyceride (TG) as well as high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels. Most of the CETP deficiency cases were reported to have normal or reduced serum TG with elevated
The angiopoietin-like proteins are a family of proteins that share structural similarities to the angiopoietins. These proteins have been described to play a key role in the regulation of a myriad of physiologic processes, including serving as essential modulators of lipid and glucose metabolism.
BACKGROUND
Postprandial changes in remnant-like lipoprotein particles (RLP) contribute to the severity of coronary heart disease in type 2 diabetes. Since the determinants of postprandial response in RLP are not well understood, this study investigated the roles of fasting triglyceride,
BACKGROUND
Hypertriglyceridemia is associated with increased remnant-like particle cholesterol (RLP-C) and triglycerides in low-density lipoprotein (LDL-TG). Recent studies have focused on atherogenicity of RLP-C, with few data on LDL-TG.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to examine associations
Angiopoietin-like 3 (ANGPTL3) is a regulator of plasma triglyceride (TRG) levels due to its inhibitory action on the activity of lipoprotein lipase (LPL). ANGPTL3 is proteolytically cleaved by proprotein convertases to generate an active N-terminal domain, which forms a complex with ANGPTL8
The effects of a fat meal upon plasma insulin, glucagon, and glucagon-like immunoreactivity (GLI) have been studied in conscious dogs and in human volunteers. In dogs the intraduodenal instillation of 10 g/kg of peanut oil was accompanied by increases in the mean plasma levels of all three
Glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored HDL-binding protein (GPIHBP1) binds both LPL and chylomicrons, suggesting that GPIHBP1 is a platform for LPL-dependent processing of triglyceride (TG)-rich lipoproteins. Here, we investigated whether GPIHBP1 affects LPL activity in the absence and presence of
