  2. 1. Lipoprotein lipase : mechanism for adaptation of activity to the nutritional state

    Author : Gengshu Wu; Thomas Olivecrona; Gunilla Olivecrona; Peter Nisson-Ehle; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biochemistry; adipose tissue; heparin; extracellular; nutrition; turnover; actinomycin; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is an enzyme to hydrolyze triglycerides in lipoproteins and thereby make the fatty acids available for cellular metabolic reactions. Short-term fasting down-regulates LPL activity in adipose tissue. This regulation is through post-translational mechanism. READ MORE

  4. 2. Regulation of Lipoprotein Lipase Activity : an In-vitro Study of a Complex and Dynamic System

    Author : Oleg Kovrov; Gunilla Olivecrona; Aivar Lookene; Mikael Larsson; Geesje Dallinga-Thie; Umeå universitet; []

    Abstract : The progress of human society outpaces our biological evolution, and this brings unexpected health problems. The industrial revolution brought up dramatic changes in nutrition and lifestyle – we are increasingly shifting towards a nutrient-rich Western-patterned diet and to a sedentary lifestyle. READ MORE

  6. 4. Lipase-catalyzed production of structured triacylglycerols

    Author : Ariana Causevic; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structured lipids; Lipase; Acyl migration; Immobilization; Lipid analysis; Transesterification; Water activity;

    Abstract : Vegetable oils and fats are major energy sources but also play an essential part in the physical and chemical properties of food products. The current change in the climate is affecting harvest yields, leading to a shortage and increased prices of raw materials that are difficult to replace. READ MORE

  7. 5. Angiopoietin-like protein 4 : an unfolding chaperone regulating lipoprotein lipase activity

    Author : Valentina Sukonina; Gunilla Olivecrona; Lena Kjellen; Umeå universitet; []

    Abstract : Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is the main enzyme hydrolyzing triglyceride-rich lipoproteins in plasma. Proteoglycan-bound LPL on the vascular endothelium represent the functional pool of active enzyme. LPL is regulated in a tissue specific manner according to metabolic demands. READ MORE
