Activity was measured by the amount of free fatty acids released by control or postheparin plasma from an artificial lipoprotein triglyceride substrate during one hour of incubation at 37°C. as ...

A protein that is expressed on capillary endothelial cells, called GPIHBP1 (glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored high-density lipoprotein binding protein 1), binds lipoprotein lipase and shuttles it ...

The lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene encodes a rate-limiting enzyme protein that has a key role in the hydrolysis of triglycerides. Hypertriglyceridemia, one widely prevalent syndrome of LPL deficiency ...

LPL has a central role in lipid metabolism by catalyzing the hydrolysis of chylomicrons and very-low-density lipoproteins. In addition to its catalytic function, LPL acts as a bridging protein between ...

Amylase and lipase tests help detect two key digestive enzymes in your bloodstream. Abnormal levels may mean you have a medical condition such as pancreatitis or a problem with your kidneys. The ...
