The plasma apolipoproteins can be classified into two subgroups: the soluble
apolipoproteins including apolipoprotein (apo) AI, A-II, A-IV, CI, C-II, C-III, and E, and the …

We have identified a negative regulatory region between positions-1802 and-3211 of the
human apolipoprotein B gene that reduces expression of the gene. This “reducer” effect was …

We report the identification and partial characterization of polymorphisms among inbred
strains of mice affecting several aspects of the expression of apolipoproteins B and E (apoB …

Apolipoprotein E (apoE) secreted by macrophages in the artery wall exerts an important
protective effect against the development of atherosclerosis, presumably through its ability to …

Objective: Dyslipidemia is an important determinant of coronary disease. Phenotypic
correlations between atherogenic lipids are well established, but the contribution of common …

A high plasma concentration of lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] confers an increased risk for the
development of coronary heart disease. Hormones, such as oestrogen, are some of the few …

Although the atheroprotective role of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) has been well
documented in epidemiological and animal studies, highly effective therapeutic approaches …

The observation that glucocorticoids increase the abundance of apolipoprotein AI led us to a
search for potential underlying mechanism (s). In this report, we show that the synthetic …

Apolipoprotein D (apoD) and apolipoprotein E (apoE) are co-expressed in many tissues,
and, in certain neuropathological situations, their expression appears to be under …

At least 468 individual genes have been manipulated by molecular methods to study their
effects on the initiation, promotion, and progression of atherosclerosis. Most clinicians and …
