Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Paraoxonase (PON1) associated with HDL can be regarded as a cardio- and vasoprotective enzyme. However, because HDL is not a homogeneous fraction, it is important to investigate in which subgroups of HDL active PON1 is located. It would also be useful to determine density profiles of the HDL apolipoproteins (Apo) E and J. METHODS: We investigated the density range of HDL (rho = 1.063-1.256 kg/L) in...
