Synthesis and function of hepatic very-low-density lipoprotein

Gibbons, G.F., Wiggins, D., Brown, A.-M., Hebbachi, A.-M.·2004·Biochemical Society Transactions

Abstract

Most of the triacylglycerol (TAG) utilized for the assembly of very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) in the secretory apparatus of the hepatocyte is mobilized by lipolysis of the cytosolic TAG pool, followed by re-esterification. The lipases involved include arylacetamide deacetylase and/or triacylglycerol hydrolase. Some of the re-esterified products of lipolysis gain access to an apolipoprotein-B-rich VLDL precursor to form mature VLDL. Some, however, are returned to the cytosolic pool in a process that is stimulated by insulin and inhibited by microsomal triacylglycerol transfer protein (MTP). Phospholipids also contribute to VLDL TAG in a process which involves ADP-ribosylation factor-1 (ARF-1)-mediated activation of phospholipase D. The temporary storage of TAG in the liver, followed by its mobilization and secretion as VLDL, form part of a process by which the liver protects vulnerable body tissues from excess lipotoxic non-esterified (‘free’) fatty acids in the plasma.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
