Apolipoprotein A-V (apoA-V) affects plasma triglyceride (TG) levels; however, the properties of apoA-V that mediate its action(s) are still incompletely understood. It is unclear how apoA-V, whose plasma concentration is extremely low, can affect the pronounced TG differences observed in individuals with various apoA-V dysfunctions. To gain novel insights into apoA-V biology, we expanded our previous studies in the chicken to this apolipoprotein. First, we characterized the first avian apoA-V, revealing its expression not only in liver and small intestine but also in brain, kidney, and ovarian follicles and showing its presence in the circulation. Second, we demonstrate directly that galline apoA-V binds to the major LDL receptor family member (LR) of the laying hen and that this interaction does not depend on the association of the apolipoprotein with lipid or lipoproteins. We propose that a direct interaction with LRs may represent a novel, additional mechanism for the modulation of TG levels by apoA-V.
