Pig plasma phospholipid transfer protein facilitates HDL interconversion.
Phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) from pig plasma was purified to homogeneity using ultracentrifugation and a combination of hydrophobic-, heparin-Sepharose-, and anti-pig-PLTP-affinity chromatography techniques. The molecular weight of PLTP is 78,000 as estimated by SDS-PAGE and by gel filtration. The effect of pig plasma PLTP on the particle size distribution of either human or pig high de...
متن کاملApoA-II/apoA-I molar ratio in the HDL particle influences phospholipid transfer protein-mediated HDL interconversion.
Pig plasma phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) facilitates interconversion of both human HDL3 and pig HDL into HDL subpopulations of large and small particles. We recently suggested that there are two essential parts in the conversion mechanism, i.e., the release of apoA-I and phospholipids and the fusion of apoA-I-depleted unstable particles. Based on their mass composition and electrophoreti...
متن کاملMolecular cloning and functional expression of cDNA encoding the pig plasma phospholipid transfer protein.
Humans and the pig show marked similarities in lipoprotein metabolism; therefore, the pig has been used as a model in numerous nutritional studies. Pig plasma displays no activity of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP), which is known to be responsible for half of the phospholipid mass transfer in human plasma, the other half being accounted for by the plasma phospholipid transfer protein...
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 کاملSeparation of a plasma phospholipid transfer protein from cholesterol ester/phospholipid exchange protein.
The d > 1.21 g/ml fraction of human plasma stimulates mass transfer of phosphatidylcholine (PC) from egg PC vesicles into plasma high density lipoproteins (HDL) and also exchange of PC and cholesterol esters (CE) between HDL and low density lipoproteins (LDL). By measuring the facilitated transfer of PC from egg PC vesicles into HDL, and the facilitated exchange of cholesterol esters between HD...
