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 3
Relative amount of AP SAA in VLDL, LDL, and HDL fractions. AP SAA was found differentially expressed in all purified fractions in patients compared to controls (, , and , for VLDL, LDL, and HDL fractions, resp.). Data were obtained by image analysis on 2-DE maps from 4 pooled plasma samples obtained from patients and 4 from healthy controls using PD-Quest analysis software V 8.0.1. Data are expressed as mean ± SD.
