Analysis of membrane systems using lipoprotein nanodiscs
… their analysis challenging. Engineered nanoscale lipoprotein Nanodiscs provide a well-defined and native-like lipid bilayer to solubilize membrane proteins and lipids. This dissertation details the analysis of Nanodiscs containing various membrane proteins and lipids with bioanalytical methods, …

Lipoprotein receptors in cultured bovine endothelial cells
… cells take up and degrade both low density lipoproteins and low density lipoproteins which have been modified by acetylation (AcLDL). In this study, receptors that may be involved in the uptake of these lipoproteins were characterized. The cells used were aortic endothelial cells obtained …

The Effects of Phytosterols on Lipoprotein Particle Size
… disease through other mechanisms, such as lipoprotein particle size and inflammatory markers, remains unclear. PURPOSE: The primary aim of this study was to examine the effects of two forms of PS in milk on lipoprotein particle size, inflammatory markers and fat-soluble vitamins. METHODS: …

Lipoprotein(a) and the risk of vascular disease
Background: Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is composed of a low density-lipoprotein (LDL) particle and a glycoprotein molecule known as apolipoprotein(a) [apo(a)]. Apo(a) exists in several differently-sized isoforms and is responsible for the unique properties of Lp(a). Although Lp(a) has been known for …

Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptors in Signaling Modulation and Development
The Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor gene family is a group of ancient membrane receptors. Originally implied in cargo transport and development of atherosclerosis, the number of members and the diversity of functions have been greatly expanded. LRP1, LRP1b and LRP4 are gene family members that are …

Lipoprotein lipidomics in obesity-associated metabolic and hepatic disorders
… to evolve to hepatocellular carcinoma and CVD. Lipoprotein dysmetabolism is crucial to both MetS and NAFLD and few studies have investigated the circulating lipidome, defined as the complete lipid profile in a specific tissue/biofluid, in these conditions. The work contained in this thesis …

Post-translational processing of the low density lipoprotein receptor
The low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor is a transmembrane glycoprotein that mediates the uptake of plasma LDL and thereby provides cholesterol to cells. During its synthesis in the endoplasmic reticulum, the LDL receptor folds and forms disulfide bonds in multiple cysteine-rich repeats. N- and …

The regulation of blood coagulation by high-density lipoprotein particles
High-density lipoprotein (HDL) has anti-atherogenic properties and the plasma level of HDL cholesterol correlates inversely with the risk of coronary artery disease. The atheroprotective functions of HDL can be explained by its function in the reverse cholesterol transport. Blood coagulation is …

Lipoprotein Lipase Inhibitor Removal During Ultrafiltration of Renal Failure Patients
… plasma on the lipolytic activity of bovine milk lipoprotein lipase was investigated. The lipoprotein lipase activity, as measured by release of C<sup>14</sup>-labeled free fatty acid from triglyceride, was decreased 8-67% when incubated with uremic plasma as compared to the control plasma (44 …

Lipoprotein Lipase in the Arterial Wall: Regulation by Dietary Fatty Acids
… selective LDL-cholesterol uptakes, and arterial lipoprotein lipase (LpL). Because consumption of n-3 fatty acids (FA), such as EPA and DHA, potentially reduces the risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD), we investigated the mechanisms whereby dietary FA, metabolic syndrome and LpL interact to …
