GUINEA PIG APOLIPOPROTEIN C-II: EXPRESSION IN E. COLI, FUNCTIONAL STUDIES OF RECOMBINANT WILD-TYPE AND MUTATED VARIANTS, AND DISTRIBUTION ON PLASMA LIPOPROTEINS

Guinea pig apolipoprotein C-II: expression in E. coli, functional studies of recombinant wild-type and mutated variants, and distribution on plasma lipoproteins

Guinea pig apolipoprotein C-II (apoC-II) lacks four amino acid residues in the amino-terminal, lipid-binding part compared to apoC-II from other mammalian species (Andersson et al.1991.J.Biol.Chem.266: 4074-4080).To explore whether this structural difference explains the bottle cage low ability of guinea pig plasma to activate lipoprotein lipase in

Human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells ameliorate atrophic gastritis in aging mice by participating in mitochondrial autophagy through Ndufs8 signaling

Abstract Background Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is a chronic disease of the gastric mucosa characterized by a reduction or an absolute disappearance of the original gastric glands, possibly replaced by pseudopyloric fibrosis, intestinal metaplasia, or fibrosis.CAG develops progressively into intestinal epithelial metaplasia, dysplasia, and ult
