Cholesterol-Binding Capacity of Serum Globulins in Normal and Atherosclerotic Subjects

Lipid-Binding Capacity of Intimal Globulins in Human Aortic Atherosclerosis

“…Mild To study the lipid-binding capacity of intimal globulins a portion of the intima was removed from the arch of the aorta prior to staining and was soaked between two layers of blotting paper. One gram of intima was weighed and an intimal extract was prepared in a known quantity of From Kayahan,9 however, has suggested that the lipid-binding capacity of both the serum and the intimal globulins determines the lipid accumulation in atheromatous plaques. Our views based on present findings are in corollary to his, that the metabolic changes of the lipid-binding globulins may be of some primary importance in human atherogenesis.…”
