Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-binding protein is carried on lipoproteins and acts as a cofactor in the neutralization of LPS. [PDF]
Lipoproteins isolated from normal human plasma can bind and neutralize bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and may represent an important mechanism in host defense against gram-negative septic shock. Recent studies have shown that experimentally elevating

Estimating the level of carbamoylated plasma non-high-density lipoproteins using infrared spectroscopy [PDF]
Background: The increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality observed in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients can be partly explained by the presence of carbamoylated lipoproteins. Lipid profiles can be determined with infrared spectroscopy. In this

Dietary fatty acids and lipoproteins on progression of age-related macular degeneration [PDF]
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a medical condition of central loss vision and blindness. Numerous studies have revealed that changes on certain dietary fatty acids (FAs) could have useful for AMD management.

Immunochemical studies on human plasma lipoproteins [PDF]
Some years ago, a series of human serum lipoproteins, distinguishable by their hydrated densities and lipid-protein ratios were recognized and isolated by ultracentrifugal techniques (1).

Apolipoprotein A-II regulates HDL stability and affects hepatic lipase association and activity
The effect of apolipoprotein A-II (apoA-II) on the structure and stability of HDL has been investigated in reconstituted HDL particles. Purified human apoA-II was incorporated into sonicated, spherical LpA-I particles containing apoA-I, phospholipids ...

Identification and Characterization of the Lipid Transport System in the Tarantula Grammostola rosea [PDF]
Lipids due to its hydrophobic nature are transported in the hemolymph mainly by lipoproteic fractions. In the present work we studied the lipoproteic fractions present in the hemolymph of the spider Grammostola rosea.

Interaction of low-density lipoproteins of serum with hemin*†
The interaction of low-density lipoproteins of human serum with hemin and the nature of the oxidative denaturation of low-density lipoproteins of serum catalyzed by hemin was studied by means of spectrophotometric and ultracentrifugal analyses and by ...

Reduction of circulating cholesterol and apolipoprotein levels during sepsis [PDF]
Sepsis with multiple organ failure is frequently associated with a substantial decrease of cholesterol levels. This decrease of cholesterol is strongly associated with mortality suggesting a direct relation between inflammatory conditions and altered ...
