Three immunochemically and electrophoretically distinct lipoproteins, LP-A, LP-B, and LP-X,(1) were isolated from the low density lipoprotein fraction (1.006-1.063 g/ml) in plasma from patients with biliary obstruction by a separation procedure which combines ultracentrifugation, heparin precipitation, and ethanol fractionation. This method, here described, permits the quantitative determinatio...

Experimental blister wound healing was studied in patients with diabetes mellitus and in patients with obstructive jaundice. Suction blisters were induced on healthy volunteers, and the healing blisters were biopsied at different time points. Cytokeratin expression and the tight junction ...
