摘要：Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) regulates the plasma levels of triglyceride and HDL. Three aspects are reviewed. 1 ) Clinical implications of human LPL gene variations: common mutations and their effects on plasma lipids and coronary heart disease are discussed. 2 ) LPL actions in the nervous system, liver, and heart: the discussion focuses on LPL and tissue lipid uptake. 3 ) LPL gene regulation: the LPL promoter and its regulatory elements are described.
