In vitro factors affecting the concentration of gamma-LpE (γ-LpE) in human plasma

Gamma-LpE (γ-LpE), a sphingomyelin-rich lipoprotein that contains apolipoprotein (apo) E as its only protein component, has been proposed to play a role in cellular cholesterol efflux by acting, like pre-β1-LpA-I, as an initial acceptor of cell-derived cholesterol. In order to further characterize t...
