Title :
HDL particles remain poorly characterized due to their size, complexity,dynamic nature, and large degree of diversity in com
position and function
Abstract :
- Enabling technologies that can be used to comprehensively analyzethese biologically important particles are needed
- In particular,very little is known about the biological functions related to theglycosylated components of HDL
- This deficiency in understanding theglycobiology of HDL may be critically important since early publishedevidence indicates that both glycoproteins and glycolipids associatedwith HDL and their variation in glycosylation patterns may be eithermechanistically involved or diagnostic of HDL functions
- In this study, HDL particles isolated from healthy human plasma were comprehensivelyexamined for their glycan structures, and the results led to a compellingnew model of HDL as a class of highly sialylated particles
