(author), Buytenhek, R. (author), Leuven, J.A.G. (author), Troost, R. (author), van der Laarse, A. (author), Princen, H.M.G. (author)Although there is evidence that hyperlipidemia and predominance of small dense low density lipoproteins (LDLs) are associated with increased oxidative stress, the oxidation status in patients with hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) has not been studied in detail. Therefore, we studied urinary levels of F2-isoprostanes (8-isoprostaglandin F(2α) and 2,3...article 2000

(author), Gaubius Instituut TNO (author)Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is bound to heparan sulphate proteoglycans (HSPG) at the luminal surface of endothelium. It is the key enzyme involved in the hydrolysis of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL). Prior to lipolysis by LPL, the lipoproteins are considered to interact with vessel wall HSPG. Apolipoprotein (apo) E is thought to mediate this...article 1998

(author)An in vitro assay to study lipolysis of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) by heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG-bound lipoprotein lipase (LPL) was developed. Optimal conditions for VLDL lipolysis by HSPG-bound LPL were obtained by incubating plastic wells with 0.5 ug HSPG and 1.5 ug LPL, subsequently. Control experiments with heparinase...article 1997
