ApoE may modulate triglyceride-rich lipoprotein clearance; leaves open its relevance to human dyslipidemia and requires clinical studies.
Does Apolipoprotein E inhibit lipoprotein lipase-mediated lipolysis of triglyceride-rich lipid emulsions in vitro and in vivo?
Apolipoprotein E specifically inhibits LPL-mediated hydrolysis of emulsion triglycerides, suggesting a modulatory role in triglyceride-rich lipoprotein processing beyond receptor recognition.
Rensen et al. (1996) studied this question.
