[Dynamics of lipid accumulation on human aortic walls in atherosclerosis]. 1988

V R Babaev, and V N Sirotkin, and E M Tararak

The authors studied distribution of apoprotein B (apo B) and lipids containing esterified and nonesterified cholesterol (EC and NEC) in human aortic wall, using methods of indirect immunofluorescence with antibodies of apo B, and filipin and oil red 0 staining. All the examinees over 14 exhibited visually intact and atherosclerosis-affected vascular sites of accumulated apo-B-containing lipoproteins. EC, staining oil red 0, occurred only in the lipid strip and atherosclerotic plaque. Filipin-positive NEC was found in atherosclerotic plaque only. NEC disseminated extracellularly in the form of separate spherical corpuscles and homogenously. Saline pretreatment of nonfixed cryostat sections reduced the intensity of filipin homogenous staining. Mechanisms of lipids formation in vascular tissue of humans are under discussion.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008077 Lipoproteins, LDL A class of lipoproteins of small size (18-25 nm) and light (1.019-1.063 g/ml) particles with a core composed mainly of CHOLESTEROL ESTERS and smaller amounts of TRIGLYCERIDES. The surface monolayer consists mostly of PHOSPHOLIPIDS, a single copy of APOLIPOPROTEIN B-100, and free cholesterol molecules. The main LDL function is to transport cholesterol and cholesterol esters to extrahepatic tissues.

D005455 Fluorescent Antibody Technique Test for tissue antigen using either a direct method, by conjugation of antibody with fluorescent dye (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, DIRECT) or an indirect method, by formation of antigen-antibody complex which is then labeled with fluorescein-conjugated anti-immunoglobulin antibody (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, INDIRECT). The tissue is then examined by fluorescence microscopy.
