Effect of plasma triglyceride concentrations on the accuracy of immunoturbidimetric assays of apolipoprotein B.
We have studied the influence of triglyceride-rich particles on the analytical bias of apolipoprotein B measurements by various immunoturbidimetric methods. Three commercially available methods grossly overestimate apolipoprotein B in samples with even moderately above-normal triglyceride concentrations. This effect is due to the increased relative reactivity of very-low-density lipoproteins in...
متن کاملThe association between small dense low density lipoprotein,apolipoprotein B, apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A1 ratio and coronary artery stenosis
Abstract Background: Recently, small dense low density lipoprotein (sdLDL) has been highlighted as a new risk factor for the coronary artery disease (CAD).Small dense LDLs are believed to be atherogenic since these particles are taken up more easily by arterial wall. They are readily oxidized and have reduced affinity for low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor and increased affinity...
متن کاملSerum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b is a specific and sensitive marker of bone resorption.
ϭ the number of measurements for each calibration point x ϭ the mean values of all calibrator concentrations The resulting detection limits for normal-and low-range applications are given in Table 1. The assays were linear up to 65 mg/L for Apo A-II and 8 mg/L for Apo C-III and ApoE. For ApoA-I and ApoB, a high-dose hook effect attributable to antigen excess was observed starting at 275 mg/L ...
متن کاملAutomated measurement of mouse apolipoprotein B: convenient screening tool for mouse models of atherosclerosis.
Although mice are commonly used for studies of atherosclerosis, investigators have had no convenient way to quantify apolipoprotein (apo) B, the major protein of atherogenic lipoproteins, in this model. We now report an automated immunoturbidimetric assay for mouse apo B with an NCCLS imprecision study CV < 5%. Added hemoglobin up to 50 g/L did not interfere with the assay, nor did one freeze-t...
متن کاملMarkers of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein remnant metabolism in visceral obesity.
BACKGROUND Triglyceride-rich lipoprotein remnants are atherogenic, and this may be particularly important in visceral obesity. We investigated remnant metabolism in obese men by measuring remnant-like particle-cholesterol (RLP-C), apolipoprotein (apo) B-48, apoC-III, and the clearance of a labeled remnant-like emulsion. METHODS Fasting RLP-C, apoB-48, and apoC-III concentrations were measured...
