Factors affecting the regulation of apo b secretion by liver cells

Abstract: The concentration of apo B is an important risk factor for atherosclerosis, and thus its reduction is associated with a reduction in CHD mortality. In order to reduce apo B concentrations effectively, we must understand how plasma apo B concentration is regulated. Apo B is synthesized, assembled, and secreted by the liver, controlling this process will reduce the number of particles that eventually enter the plasma compartment. The assembly of apo B into a VLDL particle is a complex process which occurs throug… Show more

“…It is well-established that apo B is required for the assembly and secretion of these TG-rich lipoproteins by liver cells, and that each particle contains a single apo B molecule (32). Although controversies still exist, most of the available data, as summarized in recent reviews (33)(34)(35)(36), indicate that regulation of apo B secretion is primarily a posttranslational event governed by the efficiency of translocation of the protein across the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and its association with lipids. Excess of apo B that does not associate appropriately with lipids inside the endoplasmic reticulum lumen is degraded rapidly.…”

“…The liver secretes VLDL particles that are precursors of VLDL remnants, which subsequently may be transformed into IDL and LDL. 10 This cascade occurs as the result of the actions of lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase. However, all apoB-containing particles are significantly enriched while circulating in the plasma by the action of the cholesteryl ester transfer protein, which transfers cholesterol, in the form of its ester, from HDL to these particles.…”

“…ApoA-1 is the main component of HDL, which is critical for lipid metabolism and inflammation. Apo B is also synthesized by the liver and is the main structural protein of LDL-CHOL, accounting for about 97% of the total protein content of LDL-CHOL ( 15 ). It has been proposed that the products derived from lipoprotein-peroxide interactions could contribute to mutagenicity and carcinogenicity in cells ( 16 ).…”
