Haptoglobin Genotype Is a Determinant of Hemoglobin Adducts and Vitamin E Content in HDL

Figure 2

Measurement of Hb adducts with HDL. The 72 kd and 43 kd Hb immunoreactive bands were analyzed by ImageMaster, and the results were normalized to that obtained with HDL + Hb + H2O2 alone. The experiment was repeated eight times with 4 separate Hp preparations of each type (1-1 and 2-2) with each Hp preparation assessed twice. Data is reported as mean ± SD.
