Synopsis

Lipoproteins play an important role in maintaining the normal distribution of lipids in the body and in the transport of lipophilic compounds. They are also implicated, however, in some of the major diseases of the Western world including atherosclerosis, heart disease, and stroke. This has lead to a dramatic proliferation of lipoprotein research. This comprehensive volume analyzes the biological activity of lipoproteins. It provides detailed protocols for preparing and separating different lipoproteins, and includes methods for studying their metabolism, activity in different tissues, and interactions with receptors. Lipoprotein Analysis: A Practical Approach is an essential manual for all biomedical scientists studying these compounds including those interested in their role in diseases of the circulatory system.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Lipoproteins play an important role in maintaining the normal distribution of lipids in the body and in the transport of lipophilic substances. They are also implicated, however, in some of the major diseases of the Western world including heart disease and stroke and consequently there has been a dramatic proliferation of research in this area. The focus of this volume is on the methodology of lipoprotein research. It contains a selection of chapters which provide detailed protocols for preparing and separating different lipoproteins, followed by methods for studying their metabolism, presence in different tissues, and interactions with receptors. Lipoprotein Analysis: A Practical Approach is an essential manual for all biomedical scientists studying these compounds including those interested in their role in diseases of the circulatory system.
