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 ...

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 ...
