Stimulation of cholesterol ester exchange by lipoprotein-free rabbit plasma

D B Zilversmit et al. Biochim Biophys Acta. .

Abstract

A fraction in normal and hypercholesterolemic rabbit plasma of density greater than 1.25 stimulates the exchange of cholesterol esters between very low density and low density lipoproteins from hypercholesterolemic rabbit plasma. The exchange does not result from lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase activity. The active factor appears to be a high molecular weight globulin with an isolelectric point of 5.2.
