PBB_Summary
section_title =
summary_text = LPL encodes lipoprotein lipase, which is expressed in heart, muscle, and adipose tissue. LPL functions as a homodimer, and has the dual functions of triglyceride hydrolase and ligand/bridging factor for receptor-mediated lipoprotein uptake. Severe mutations that cause LPL deficiency result in type I hyperlipoproteinemia, while less extreme mutations in LPL are linked to many disorders of lipoprotein metabolism.

Regulation
Insulin is known to enhance LPL synthesis in adipocytes and its placement in the capillary endothelium.
LPL has different isozymes in different tissues. The form that is in adipocytes is activated by insulin, whereas that in muscle and myocardium is not. This helps to explain why adipose cells gain fat in a well-fed state.
Pathology
Lipoprotein lipase deficiency leads to hypertriglyceridemia (elevated levels of triglycerides in the bloodstream).[cite journal |author=Okubo M, Horinishi A, Saito M, "et al" |title=A novel complex deletion-insertion mutation mediated by Alu repetitive elements leads to lipoprotein lipase deficiency |journal=Mol.
