Notes:
Abstract Studies using affinity chromatography and ultracentrifugation indicate that in human blood 40–50% of lipid hydroperoxides are transported by apoB-lipoproteins, 20% by high-density lipoproteins, and 30–40% by albumins and other proteins. Affinity-isolated apoB-lipoproteins from umbilical blood contain smaller amounts of lipid hydroperoxides than do those from the blood of healthy adults, while the content of lipid hydroperoxides in apoB-lipoproteins from the blood of patients with ischemic heart disease is often higher. Aortal apoB-lipoproteins are considerably enriched in these hydroperoxides.
