Details for messenger / hormone: APOA1

EndoNet ID: ENH00542

To link to the content of EndoNet use the EndoNet ID that is given on the detail pages in the format ENX0000, where X is a place holder for the type of the component (e. g. R for receptor or C for anatomical structure).
As URL for the linking append this ID to the detail page for this type of component.
For an hormone that would be:

http://endonet.bioinf.med.uni-goettingen.de/hormone/ENH00000

It is also possible to use the search of EndoNet to link to the right detail page. The URL should look like

http://endonet.bioinf.med.uni-goettingen.de/search/ENC00000
If the search pattern is unambigious the user is directed to the corresponding detail page.

Synonyms

  • APOA1
  • ApoA-I
  • Apo-AI
  • apolipoprotein A-I
  • apolipoprotein A1
  • apolipoprotein-A1

General information

  • Apolipoprotein-A1 is downregulated in ovarian cancer sera, and could therefore be used as marker. [1]
  • Apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) is the major apolipoprotein of high-density lipoproteins (HDL) and has an important role in the regulation of the stability, lipid transport, and metabolism of HDL particles. [2]
  • A low dose infusion of ApoA-I inhibits neutrophil and endothelial cell activation in carotid arteries decreases neutrophil infiltration. [3]
