Proteomic Analysis of Plasma-Purified VLDL, LDL, and HDL Fractions from Atherosclerotic Patients Undergoing Carotid Endarterectomy: Identification of Serum Amyloid A as a Potential Marker
Figure 1
Protein expression patterns of VLDL (a), LDL (b), HDL (c) fractions, and plasma (d). Exchangeable apolipoproteins from purified lipoprotein fractions were resolved by isoelectric focusing on pH 4–7 IPG strips followed by SDS-PAGE on 15% T and 3% C gels (a–c). Plasma proteins were resolved by isoelectric focusing on pH 3–10 IPG strip followed by SDS-PAGE on 10% T and 3% C gel (d). Protein spots identified by MALDI-TOF MS analysis are marked.
