Background
Apolipoprotein E (APOE) was first identified in the 1970s as one of the protein components of plasma very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and found to play a critical role in plasma cholesterol metabolism. APOE is a 299-amino acid polypeptide that mediates the binding, internalization, and catabolism of lipoprotein particles, and also serves as a ligand for the LDL (apo B/E) receptor and for the specific apo-E receptor (chylomicron remnant) of hepatic tissues. The very strong association of the APOE ɛ4 allele with AD risk and its role in the accumulation of amyloid β in brains of people and animal models solidify the biological relevance of APOE isoforms but do not provide mechanistic insight.
