[Lipoprotein lipase fractionation of very low density serum lipoproteins from healthy subjects and persons afflicted with atherosclerosis].
In vitro experiments showed that blood sera of the patients with atherosclerosis contained rather often the fraction of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) with sf 100-400 S, which were cleaved by the lipoprotein lipase at the decreased rate as compared with that of normal people. The decrease in cleavage of the VLDL fraction was usually observed in patients with the increased concentration of the lipoprotein fraction in blood sera. These data suggest that separate constituents occurring in the VLDL fraction (sf 100-400 S) may be nonuniformly increased in hyperlipoproteinemia.
