Intracellular Signaling Pathways Regulating Hepatic Apolipoprotein B100 Production: Roles of Mitogen-activated Protein Kinases (MAPKs) and Inhibitor of NFkappaB Kinase (IKK)-NFkappaB
Apolipoprotein B100 (apoB), the structural protein component of triglyceride-rich very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) and atherogenic low density lipoprotein, is considered an important risk indicator of atherosclerosis. In insulin resistant states, hepatic overproduction of apoB leads to metabolic...
