    Exercise affects lipoprotein metabolism and apolipoprotein E (Apo E) genotype may alter changes in lipoprotein subclasses that occur with exercise. The present study examined the effects of Apo E genotype (APOE) on the response of lipoprotein subclass concentrations to long-term exercise. A prospective longitudinal study, conducted at seven centers, genetically screened 566 individuals to create three cohorts of healthy adults, equal for gender and the most common APOE variants: E2/3 (n = 35), E3/3 (n = 40), and E3/4 (n = 31). Subjects with body mass index (BMI) ≥31 or evidence of dyslipidemia or metabolic disease were excluded. All subjects exercised aerobically at 75% of maximal heart rate for 40 min, four times weekly for 6 months. Fasting lipoprotein subpopulations were measured before and after exercise training using proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Serum lipids for the entire cohort did not change with exercise training, but the LDL subpopulation response varied by APOE. Small-sized LDL particles decreased only in the APOE3 homozygotes whereas medium-sized LDL particles increased only in this group. These changes were directionally different from the responses in the E2/3 and E3/4 subjects (p \u3c 0.05). Neither exercise nor APOE variant affected overall LDL or HDL size or cholesterol concentration, but exercise decreased VLDL diameter by 3.5 nm (p \u3c 0.001) attributable to decreases in large VLDL in each APOE group. In conclusion, APOE variants influence the serum LDL subpopulation response to exercise training in normolipidemic subjects. Subjects homozygous for APOE3 experienced the most beneficial lipid effects from exercise training. © 2005 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved

    Interactive effects of APOE haplotype, sex, and exercise on postheparin plasma lipase activities. J Appl Physiol 110: 1021-1028, 2011. First published February 3, 2011; doi:10.1152/japplphysiol.00287.2010.-Hepatic lipase (HL) and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activities (HLA, LPLA) modify lipoproteins and facilitate their binding to hepatic receptors. Apolipoprotein E (APOE) physically interacts with the lipases, and the three common haplotypes of the APOE gene (ε2, ε3, and ε4) yield protein isoforms (E2, E3, and E4, respectively) that are functionally different. Lipase activities themselves differ by sex and exercise training status. The interaction of APOE genotype, exercise training, and sex effects on lipase activities has not been studied. We measured postheparin plasma lipase activities in normolipidemic men and women with the three most common APOE genotypes, which are the haplotype combinations ε2/ε3 (n = 53 ), ε3/ε3 (n = 62), and ε4/ε3 (n = 52), enrolled in 6 mo of aerobic exercise training. These haplotype combinations comprise an estimated 11.6, 62.3, and 21.3% of the population, respectively. Baseline HLA was 35% lower in women than in men (P \u3c 0.0001). In men but not women, HLA was higher in ε2/ε3 group compared with ε4/ε3 (P = 0.01) and ε3/ε3 (P = 0.05). Neither sex nor APOE genotype affected baseline LPLA. Training decreased HLA by 5.2% (P = 0.018) with no APOE effect. The apparent increase in LPLA following exercise was significant and APOE dependent only when corrected for baseline insulin (P \u3c 0.05). Exercise decreased LPLA by 0.8 μmol free fatty acid (FFA).ml-1.h -1 (-6%) in ε3/ε3 compared with the combined increases of 6.6% in ε2/ε3 and 12% in ε4/ε3 (P = 0.018 vs. ε3/ε3). However, these differences were statistically significant only after correcting for baseline insulin. We conclude that common APOE genotypes interact with 1) sex to modulate HLA regardless of training status, with ε2/ε3 men demonstrating higher HLA than ε3/ε3 or ε4/ε3 men, and 2) aerobic training to modulate LPLA, regardless of sex, with ε3/ε3 subjects showing a significant decrease compared with an increase in ε2/ε3 and ε3/ε4 after controlling for baseline insulin.
