Electron microscopy of human plasma lipoprotein separated by ultracentrifugation.

چکیده
The particle size distribution of the Sf 30 "class" of serum lipoprotein was determined by the electron microscope. Most of the lipoprotein molecules are not spherical but have the shape of ellipsoids of rotation with an axis ratio of 1.5. The molecules of a homogeneous flotation "class" show differences in the reactivity of their lipid moiety demonstrated by their staining properties with osmium tetroxide.

Characterization of plasma lipoproteins separated and purified by agarose-column chromatography.
1. A simple method for isolation of individual human plasma lipoprotein classes is presented. In this technique, lipoproteins are removed from plasma at d1.225 by ultracentrifugation, after which they are separated and purified by agarose-column chromatography. 2. Three major classes are obtained after agarose-column chromatography. Separation between classes is excellent; more than 95% of the ...
متن کاملEffects of Lycopene on the Susceptibility of Low-Density Lipoproteins to Oxidative Modification
The intake of antioxidants intake has been reported to be inversely associated with the incidence of coronary artery disease. To clarify the possible role of lipophilic antioxidants in prevention of atherosclerosis, we investigated the effects of lycopene on the susceptibility of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) to oxidative modification. In this study, “lycopene” was added to plasma and incubated...
متن کاملTriglyceride-rich lipoproteins isolated by selected-affinity anti-apolipoprotein B immunosorption from human atherosclerotic plaque.
We isolated and characterized immunoreactive apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing lipoproteins from human atherosclerotic plaque and plasma to determine whether very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) can enter and become incorporated into the atherosclerotic lesion and how plaque apoB-containing lipoproteins differ from apoB-containing lipoproteins isolated from plasma. Atherosclerotic plaques were ...

ABSTRACT Background: Dietary antioxidant intake has been reported to be inversely associated with coronary miery disease. To clarify the possible role oflipophilic antioxidants in the prevention of atherosclerosis, we investigated the effects ofubiquinol-1 0 and ~-carotene on the susceptibility oflow-density lipoprotein(LD L) to oxidative modification. Methods: In this study, first "u...
