Polyclonal antibodies against bovine milk lipoprotein lipase (LPL) were used to generate an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for rat LPL. The antibodies to LPL were affinity purified on bovine LPL columns and were shown to be specific for LPL by immunoprecipitation and enzyme inhibition. The solid-phase ELISA was sensitive from 1.0 to 20 ng/ml of LPL and paralleled enzyme activity. Denatured rat LPL showed the same LPL mass as undenatured samples, allowing LPL mass to be quantitated effectively in a variety of rat tissue extracts.

Objective: The impact of lipid-lowering medications on chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains a subject of debate. This Mendelian randomization (MR) study aims to elucidate the potential effects of lipid-lowering drug targets on CKD development.
Methods: We extracted 11 genetic variants encoding targets of lipid-lowering drugs from published genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics, encompassing LDLR, HMGCR, PCSK9, NPC1L1, APOB, ABCG5/ABCG8, LPL, APOC3, ANGPTL3, and PPARA.

Purpose: Genetic testing is required to confirm a diagnosis of familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS). We assessed the pathogenicity of variants identified in the FCS canonical genes to diagnose FCS cases.
Methods: 245 patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia underwent next-generation sequencing.

Graphical Abstract Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) mediates peripheral tissue triglyceride (TG) uptake. Hepatic ANGPTL3 (A3) and ANGPTL8 (A8) form a complex and inhibit LPL activity in the white adipose tissue (WAT) via systematic circulation. ANGPTL4 (A4) is expressed in WAT and inhibits LPL activity locally.
