Comment | In humans, there are three alleles of APOE: E2, E3, and E4. The APOE4 protein is folded into a more compact structure compared to the other APOE isoforms, leading to a decreased ability to bind lipids and a higher likelihood of cleavage into neurotoxic fragments. Perivascular removal of amyloid beta (Abeta) is hindered with the expression of E4, which was shown in many in vitro studies as well as in mice expressing human E4. This decreased drainage, in turn, leads to decreased clearance of Abeta peptides and increased amyloid plaques, as well as other pathophysiologic features such as alterations in the neurovascular unit and blood‚Äďbrain barrier (BBB) function. |

Comment | The role that APOE plays in transport and clearance of molecules depends on the APOE isoform, and these transport differences may be related to differences in receptor utilization for the isoforms, with APOE4-Abeta complexes using the very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) receptor and the other isoforms using LRP-1. These isoform specific differences may also affect how the blood-brain barrier (BBB) transports insulin, free fatty acids (FFAs), and other metabolites involved in cognitive processes. |

Comment | Studies investigating the role of lipids in the brain have revealed abnormal lipid metabolism as an important pathophysiological process in the development of Alzheimer disease (AD).

Comment | Triglycerides do not enhance all peptide transport across the blood-brain barrier (BBB). In a study examining leptin transport during starvation and diet-induced obesity, it was observed that leptin transport was decreased in both conditions. A commonality between these two states is the increased levels of triglycerides in circulation. The findings of this study identified triglycerides as a factor inhibiting leptin transport during starvation. Also, the authors showed that increasing triglyceride levels with diet or fasting in normal or obese mice had an inverse effect on leptin transport; and that lowering triglycerides using gemfibrozil reversed the impairment in leptin transport. These results demonstrate that triglycerides are involved in peripheral leptin resistance observed during starvation and obesity. |

Comment | There are a number of peptides in the brain that have been shown to stimulate ingestive behavior; for example, the over-consumption of food, which leads to the development of obesity. These peptides include galanin (GAL), the opioid peptides enkephalin (ENK) and dynorphin (DYN), and the orexins (ORX). Investigation of these peptides demonstrates that they are highly responsive to changes in diet and nutrients. Studies have shown that endogenous gene and protein expressions for GAL, ENK, DYN, and ORX in the periventricular nucleus and perifornical lateral hypothalamus are closely related to dietary fat, showing a positive correlation with the amount of fat consumed. |
