“…ApoB aids in the assembly, secretion, transport, and cellular uptake of lipoproteins. In mammals, ApoB is expressed in the liver and small intestine in two different isoforms, ApoB100 and ApoB48, which represent the full-length and N-terminal 48% portion of the full-length protein, respectively (Chen et al, 1988;Chen et al, 1987;Chen et al, 1986;Hussain et al, 2005;Hussain et al, 1996;Powell et al, 1987). Not surprisingly, there is a direct correlation between circulating ApoB and CAD: Higher levels cause CAD, whereas lower levels are associated with normal homeostasis or, if severely limited, with hypobetalipoproteinemia, which presents as delayed development, hepatomegaly, steatorrhea, and cytolysis (Jang et al, 2020;Welty, 2020).…”
