Apolipoprotein A-V (apoA-V), a minor protein associated with lipoproteins, has a major effect on triacylglycerol (TG) metabolism. We investigated whether apoA-V complexed with phospholipid in the form of a reconstituted high-density lipoprotein (rHDL) has potential utility as a therapeutic agent for treatment of hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) when delivered intravenously.
