Characterization and measurement of human apolipoprotein A-II by radioimmunoassay
The development of a radioimmunoassay for apolipoprotein A-II (apo A-II) is described. Initial studies revealed a lack of immunological identity between purified apo A-II used as the standard and serum or HDL. Extensive testing of different buffers, standards, antisera, tracers, utilization of a detergent, and heating of sera failed to resolve the ...

Turbidimetric Assay of Apolipoprotein A-II [PDF]
A turbidimetric assay for the quantification of apolipoprotein A-II in serum is described. Its adaptation for the Cobas Bio Analyser (Hoffmann La Roche) is reported. Regression analysis of apolipoprotein A-II values measured by turbidimetry revealed a good measure of agreement with the data obtained by radial immunodiffusion (RID) (r = 0.90, y = 0.97x +

Immunonephelometric Determination of the Apolipoprotein A-II [PDF]
A fully mechanized immunonephelometric method is described for the rapid and specific determination of apolipoprotein A-II in serum. The method utilizes commercially available sheep antiserum against human apolipoprotein A-II. Nephelometry was performed with the Behring Nephelometer Analyzer (BNA). A single determination can be performed in 12 minutes,

APO A2 -265T/C Polymorphism Is Associated with Increased Inflammatory Responses in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus [PDF]
BackgroundApolipoprotein A2 (APO A2) is the second most abundant structural apolipoprotein in high density lipoprotein. Several studies have examined the possible effect of APO A2 on atherosclerosis incidence.

Amyloid fibrils formed by selective N-, C-terminal sequences of mouse apolipoprotein A-II [PDF]
In mice, amyloidogenic type C apolipoprotein A-II (apoA-II) forms amyloid fibrils in age-associated amyloidosis. To understand the mechanism of amyloid fibril formation by apoA-II, we examined the polymerization of synthetic partial peptides of apoA-II ...

Apolipoprotein AIV gene variant S347 is associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease and lower plasma apolipoprotein AIV levels [PDF]
The impact of common variants in the apolipoprotein gene cluster (APOC3-A4-A5) on prospective coronary heart disease (CHD) risk was examined in healthy UK men. Of the 2808 men followed over 9 years, 187 had a clinically defined CHD event.

Familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCH) was originally identified as a new phenotype in studies of survivors of myocardial infarctions and their relatives.1–3 Patients with FCH were found to present with any of three patterns of lipoprotein distribution: elevated plasma levels of very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) or low-density lipoprotein (LDL) or ...

Endothelial lipase (EL) plays an important physiological role in modulating HDL metabolism. Data suggest that plasma contains an inhibitor of EL, and previous studies have suggested that apolipoprotein A-II (apoA-II) inhibits the activity of several ...
