In addition to the three major isoforms of apolipoprotein E (apo E-4, E-3, and E-2) and the new one (apo E-5) which was recently found in this laboratory, we have discovered an additional series of components, which showed themselves as at least three bands on an isoelectric focusing gel in the region of E-VII through E-V, in four patients with hyperlipidemia and atherosclerosis.

However, unlike normal nontransgenic controls, in ApoE4 transgenic mice high density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol levels remained high after high-fat feeding, which probably protected the animals from the development of atherosclerosis.

Studies in mice with targeted gene inactivation of t-PA, u-PA, PAI-1, the urokinase receptor (u-PAR), and plasminogen (Plg) revealed (1) that deficiency of t-PA or u-PA increase the susceptibility to thrombosis associated with inflammation and that combined deficiency of t-PA:u-PA or deficiency of Plg induces severe spontaneous thrombosis; (2) that vascular injury-induced neointima formation is reduced in mice lacking u-PA-mediated plasmin proteolysis, unaltered in t-PA- or u-PAR-deficient mice and accelerated in PAI-1-deficient mice, but that it can be reverted by adenoviral PAI-1 gene transfer; and (3) that atherosclerosis in mice doubly deficient in apolipoprotein E (apoE) and PAI-1 is reduced after 10 weeks of cholesterol-rich diet.
