Adsorption of Acylhydroperoxy-Derivatives of Phospholipids from Biomembranes by Blood Plasma Lipoproteins

AbstractIt has been established that acylhydroperoxy derivatives of phospholipids from oxidized rat liver mitochondria are captured predominantly by LDL particles but not by HDL during co-incubation with blood plasma lipoproteins, which refutes the previously suggested hypothesis about the involvement of HDL in the reverse transport of oxidized phospholipids and confirms the possibility of different mechanisms of lipohydroperoxide accumulation in LDL during oxidative stress.
