Quantitative determination of human plasma apolipoprotein A-I by a noncompetitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. 1985

E Koren, and P Puchois, and W J McConathy, and J D Fesmire, and P Alaupovic

A noncompetitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for human plasma apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) was developed. Microtiter plates were coated with purified antibodies to ApoA-I and blocked. Plasma samples from normolipidemic and hypertriglyceridemic subjects were added and ApoA-I was allowed to bind to coating antibodies. After washing, the amount of ApoA-I bound to microtiter plates was estimated with horseradish peroxidase-labeled antibodies to ApoA-I. A single step delipidization procedure was included to expose masked antigenic sites of ApoA-I in plasma. The average concentration of ApoA-I in plasma of normolipidemic subjects was 1.37 g/l. Recovery of ApoA-I added to plasma varied from 93-107%. Intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variations were 4 and 8%, respectively. The assay was also used for quantifying ApoA-I in lipoprotein density classes. There was a good correlation between this assay and electroimmunoassay (r = 0.84-0.92). The described sandwich ELISA is a specific, precise, sensitive and relatively simple method for measuring ApoA-I levels in human plasma.

D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.

D001053 Apolipoproteins Protein components on the surface of LIPOPROTEINS. They form a layer surrounding the hydrophobic lipid core. There are several classes of apolipoproteins with each playing a different role in lipid transport and LIPID METABOLISM. These proteins are synthesized mainly in the LIVER and the INTESTINES. Apolipoprotein
D001054 Apolipoproteins A Structural proteins of the alpha-lipoproteins (HIGH DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS), including APOLIPOPROTEIN A-I and APOLIPOPROTEIN A-II. They can modulate the activity of LECITHIN CHOLESTEROL ACYLTRANSFERASE. These apolipoproteins are low in atherosclerotic patients. They are either absent or present in extremely low plasma concentration in TANGIER DISEASE. Apo-A,ApoA

It is used with human or animal concepts but should be differentiated from SEX CHARACTERISTICS, anatomical or physiological manifestations of sex, and from SEX DISTRIBUTION, the number of males and females in given circumstances.
