Genetic and nongenetic sources of variation in phospholipid transfer protein activity.
Phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) belongs to the lipid transfer/lipopolysaccharide-binding protein gene family. Expression of PLTP has been implicated in the development of atherosclerosis. We evaluated the effects of PLTP region tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on the prediction of both carotid artery disease (CAAD) and PLTP activity. CAAD effects were evaluated in 442 Caucasi...
متن کاملQuantification of human plasma phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP): relationship between PLTP mass and phospholipid transfer activity.
A sensitive sandwich-type enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for human plasma phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) has been developed using a monoclonal capture antibody and a polyclonal detection antibody. The ELISA allows for the accurate quantification of PLTP in the range of 25-250 ng PLTP/assay. Using the ELISA, the mean plasma PLTP concentration in a Finnish population sample (n = ...
متن کامل: metadiscourse in introduction sections of applied linguistics and physics research articles: exploring variation in frequency and type
abstract in written mode of language, metadiscourse markers are used commonly to help writers in general and academic writers in particular to produce coherent and professional texts. the purpose of the present study was to compare introduction sections of applied linguistics and physics articles regarding their use of interactive and interactional metadiscourse markers based on the model pro...
15 صفحه اولGenetic and nongenetic sources of variation in the weight response of the immature rat ovary to a gonadotrophic hormone.
COMMON method of bioassay of gonad-stimulating preparations is A based on the gain in the ovary-weight of the immature female rat in relation to the amount of injected material. The large variability in the response of the ovaries of different rats of the same age to similar treatment is common knowledge of endocrinologists. The exact sources of this variability and their relative importance, h...
متن کاملPhospholipid transfer protein activity in two cholestatic patients.
CONTEXT Plasma phospholipid transfer protein mediates the transfer of phospholipids from triglyceride-rich lipoproteins, very low density lipoproteins and low density lipoproteins to high density lipoproteins, a process that is also efficient between high density lipoprotein particles. It promotes a net movement of phospholipids, thereby generating small lipid-poor apolipoprotein AI that contai...
