Description générale

Apolipoprotein C-II (APOC2/apoC-II), a small exchangeable apolipoprotein, is expressed in the liver and secreted into plasma. It is present on the triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRL), like chylomicrons (CM) and very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDL), and high-density lipoproteins (HDL), mainly during fasting. The intestine, macrophages, adipose tissue, brain, skin, lungs, retina, and retinal pigment epithelium are among the tissues that produce ApoC-II.

Application

Apolipoprotein C-II activates lipoprotein lipase and has been used in a study to assess HDL proteome in hemodialysis patients. An excess of apolipoprotein C-II is associated with increased triglyceride-rich particles and alterations in HDL particle distribution.

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Apolipoprotein C2 (APOC2) serves as an activator of lipoprotein lipase. It is involved in the hydrolysis of triglycerides (TG) on TG-rich lipoproteins (TRL) to release free fatty acids (FA). Higher expression of APOC2 is observed in patient-derived glioblastoma stem cells, hypopharyngeal cancer, invasive ductal breast cancer, clear cell renal cell carcinoma, gastric cancer, centroblastic lymphoma, early-stage colorectal tumor, and skin squamous cell carcinoma. ApoC-2 is considered as a new sensitive biomarker for diagnosing Takayasu arteritis (TAK).

Spinocerebellar ataxia 12 (SCA12) is a unique dominant type of ataxia characterized by early and prominent action tremors, memory deficit, neuropathy, dysarthria, etc. The expansion of DNA triplet (CAG) repeats in 5'UTR of PPP2R2B gene appears to be the cause

Cholesterol Transport

Since cholesterol is a water-insoluble molecule it must be packaged for transport within the plasma. The particles that package cholesterol, cholesteryl esters, and triglycerides for transport, are called lipoproteins.
