Facts about Apolipoprotein C-III.
Intracellularly, promotes hepatic very low density lipoprotein 1 (VLDL1) secretion and assembly; extracellularly, attenuates hydrolysis and clearance of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRLs) (PubMed:18201179, PubMed:22510806). Impairs the lipolysis of TRLs by inhibiting lipoprotein lipase and the hepatic uptake of TRLs by remnant receptors (PubMed:18201179, PubMed:22510806).
