Apolipoprotein E in VLDL and LDL With Apolipoprotein C‐III is Associated With a Lower Risk of Coronary Heart Disease

Abstract: BackgroundLow‐density lipoprotein (LDL) with apolipoprotein C‐III (apoC‐III) is the lipoprotein species that most strongly predicts initial and recurring coronary heart disease (CHD) events in several cohorts. Thus, a large portion of the CHD risk conferred by LDL may be attributable to LDL that contains apoC‐III. Very‐low‐density lipoprotein (VLDL) and LDL with apoC‐III have varying amounts of apoE. We hypothesized that a high content of apoE lessens the adverse influence of apoC‐III on the risk of CHD becaus… Show more

“…A number of correlative studies showed a greater incidence of CVD in persons with ApoC-III-rich LDL (38). These correlations using ApoC-III associated with LDL are more complex, as it was also reported that increased ApoE content in LDL fractions with ApoC-III is associated with a lower risk of CVD (39). Nevertheless, the use of an antisense-mediated strategy to target hepatic ApoC-III levels in order to effectively lower plasma TG levels (16,40) could prove to be a valid therapeutic approach for treating subjects with FCS, for which there is now no effective therapy.…”

“…Findings in proteomics studies showed that apoC-III and apoE are present throughout the range of sizes of HDL that are prepared by ultracentrifugation or gel fi ltration, or by precipitation of apoB lipoproteins (21)(22)(23), and analysis of HDL apolipoprotein correlations suggests speciation. However, it is not settled to what extent apoC-III and apoE defi ne distinct subtypes of apoA-I-containing HDL as they do on the apoB lipoproteins ( 18,19,24 ); whether apoC-III and apoE coexist on HDL as they do on VLDL and LDL ( 18,19,24,25 ); and how they are distributed among smaller-or larger-size apoA-I-containing HDL particles. One study, using immunoaffi nity separation, showed that apoE is present in apoA-I-containing lipoproteins in small and large sizes ( 26 ).…”

“…In an ApoE-knockout mouse model, the in-stent neointimal area or the intimato-media (I/M) ratio was greater compared with wild-type mice 25 . This effect of ApoE is independent from its lipidlowering effect 23 . Although ApoE could play a protective role against injury-induced restenosis in animal models, the relationship between ApoE and ISR has not previously been studied in the general human population.…”

“…Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is a small apolipoprotein which serves as a ligand to the low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor (LDLR) and the LDL receptor-related protein-1 (LRP1), and plays an essential role in metabolism by promoting cellular uptake of lipoproteins 23 . ApoE also inhibits platelet derivated growth factor (PDGF)-induced SMC migration and proliferation and limits neointimal hyperplasia after arterial injury 24 .…”
