Markedly increased secretion of VLDL triglycerides induced by gene transfer of apolipoprotein E isoforms in apoE-deficient mice
Apolipoprotein E (apoE) plays a key role in the receptor-mediated uptake of lipoproteins by the liver and therefore in regulating plasma levels of lipoproteins. ApoE may also facilitate hepatic secretion of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) triglyceride (TG). We directly tested the hypothesis that...
