摘要:Apolipoprotein AV (apoAV) overexpression causes a decrease in plasma triglyceride (TG) levels, while deficiency of apoAV causes hypertriglyceridemia in both men and mice. However, contrary to what would be expected, plasma apoAV and TG levels in humans are positively correlated. To address this apparent paradox, we determined plasma apoAV levels in various mouse models with median TG levels ranging from 30 mg/dl in wild-type mice to 2089 mg/dl in glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored HDL binding protein 1-deficient mice. The data show that apoAV and TG levels are positively correlated in mice ( r = +0.798, P
