Lipoproteins may be classified as five major groups, listed from larger and lower density to smaller and higher density. Lipoproteins are larger and less dense when the fat to protein ratio is increased. They are classified on the basis of electrophoresis, ultracentrifugation and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy via the Vantera Analyzer ...

A class of lipids known as phospholipids help make up what is known as lipoproteins, and a type of lipoprotein is called high density lipoprotein (HDL). [8] A high concentration of high density lipoproteins-cholesterols (HDL-C) have what is known as a vasoprotective effect on the body, a finding that correlates with an enhanced cardiovascular ...
Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A 2 (Lp-PLA 2) also known as platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH) is a phospholipase A 2 enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PLA2G7 gene. [5] [6] Lp-PLA 2 is a 45-kDa protein of 441 amino acids. [7] It is one of several PAF acetylhydrolases.
Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is one of the five major groups of lipoprotein that transport all fat molecules around the body in extracellular water. [1] These groups, from least dense to most dense, are chylomicrons (aka ULDL by the overall density naming convention), very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL ...
High-density lipoprotein (HDL) is one of the five major groups of lipoproteins. [1] Lipoproteins are complex particles composed of multiple proteins which transport all fat molecules around the body within the water outside cells. They are typically composed of 80–100 proteins per particle (organized by one, two or three ApoA). HDL particles ...
Intermediate-density lipoproteins (IDLs) belong to the lipoprotein particle family and are formed from the degradation of very low-density lipoproteins as well as high-density lipoproteins. [1] IDL is one of the five major groups of lipoproteins ( chylomicrons , VLDL , IDL, LDL , HDL ) that enable fats and cholesterol to move within the water ...
