Lipoprotein apheresis to treat elevated lipoprotein (a) [PDF]
An elevated plasma concentration of lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Life style modification and currently available drugs either fail to effectively lower plasma Lp(a) levels or do not result in clinical benefit. However, lipoprotein apheresis is very efficient in decreasing Lp(a) concentrations.

Evaluation of gel chromatography for plasma lipoprotein fractionation
The fractionation of lipoproteins of normal and hyperlipidemic subjects on a column of 2% agarose was compared with ultracentrifugation and paper electrophoresis procedures. The following results were obtained.

Alterations in lipid composition of plasma lipoproteins during deposition of egg yolk
The profiles of total lipids and of the molecular species of individual lipid classes were compared among corresponding lipoproteins of plasma and yolk of the laying hen. A close qualitative correspondence was found in the makeup of the molecular species

Pathophysiology of elevated ascites fluid cholesterol in malignant ascites [PDF]
The existence of marked elevations of ascitic fluid cholesterol has been observed in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis compared to patients with cirrhosis and has been found useful in differential diagnosis.

In vitro uptake and transfer of chlorinated hydrocarbons among human lipoproteins.
The uptake, distribution, and exchange of chlorinated hydrocarbon insecticides (dieldrin and chlordecone) and biphenyls (2,4,5-2',4',5'-hexachlorobiphenyl and 3-chlorobiphenyl) among human lipoproteins was examined by fluorescence quenching, gel ...

The physiopathology of lipoprotein a
Lipoprotein(a) (also called Lp(a)) is a lipoprotein subclass. Different studies have identified Lp(a) as a putative risk factor for atherosclerotic diseases such as coronary artery disease and stroke. The physiological role of Lp(a) in humans is still unclear, but it seems that individuals with low concentrations of plasma Lp(a) manifest no deficiency ...

Activation of lipoprotein lipase by lipoprotein fractions of human serum
Triglycerides in fat emulsions are hydrolyzed by lipoprotein lipase only when they are “activated” by serum lipoproteins. The contribution of different lipoprotein fractions to hydrolysis of triglycerides in soybean oil emulsion was assessed by ...

Objectives Experiments in cells and animal models show that lipoprotein lipase (LpL) bound to apolipoprotein (apo)B lipoproteins enhances their uptake by receptor mediated pathways. It is unknown whether this pathway is important in humans.
