Description
Apolipoprotein CIII (Apo CIII) is one of 9 known polymorphic forms of apolipoproteins. The apolipoproteins function as stabilizers of intact lipoprotein particles. Specifically, Apo CIII is a very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) protein (1). Apo CIII is involved in inhibition of lipoprotein and hepatic lipases. It is thought to delay catabolism of triglyceride-rich particles. A defect in Apo CIII has been linked to hyperalphalipoproteinemia (HLAP), which causes increased levels of high density lipoprotein (HDL) (2).
