Lipoproteins behave 'almost like a tiny Velcro ball'

(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology) Setbacks in drug trials aiming to raise HDL have led researchers to reassess the particle's effects on heart health. A study in the Journal of Lipid Research combining proteomics and mouse genetics may help researchers understand researchers understand the proteins in the particle, how they get there and how they determine HDL function.
