(A) POPC MLV (~200 nm) were incubated with SAA at 25°C, and the time course of MLV remodeling into smaller particles was monitored by turbidty at 350 nm. Protein:lipid molar ratios were 1:10, 1:50 …
Free fatty acid analysis of SAA:POPC complexes hydrolysed by sPLA2.
(A, B) FFA were generated upon lipolysis of either native HDL or SAA-HDL. For SAA-HDL, the SEC fraction containing HDL-bound proteins (Sec Fr) was isolated from the total incubation mixtures, which …
Free fatty analysis of HDL and LDL hydrolysed by sPLA2.
(A) Non-denaturing PAGE of incubation mixtures of SAA and single-donor human HDL (SAA-HDL). Molar ratios of SAA to apoA-I, the main HDL protein, are 1:1 or 4:1 (as indicated on the lanes). Fractions …
(A) SAA was incubated with either unmodified POPC to form SAA-POPC complexes or with hydrolyzed POPC to form SAA + hydPOPC complexes (see 'Materials and methods' for details). Protein:POPC molar …
(A) SAA-POPC complexes were prepared by incubating SAA with POPC SUV using SAA:POPC molar ratios of 1:1, 1:10 or 1:100 (indicated in the lanes). Lanes for intact SAA-POPC particles are shown, as …
SAA-containing complexes, which were obtained upon lipolysis of model (SAA-POPC) or plasma lipoproteins (HDL and LDL) by sPLA2, were isolated at 1.17–1.20 g/mL density (Figure 4—figure supplement 1).…
All gels were stained with Denville Blue protein stain. (A) Non-denaturing PAGE of model SAA-POPC complexes, which were prepared as described in 'Materials and methods' using 1:10 SAA:POPC mol:mol …
Intact SAA-POPC complexes (prepared using 1:10 protein:lipid molar ratio) were hydrolyzed with sPLA2-III, and the 1.17–1.20 g/ml density fraction containing ~7 nm particles was isolated (for …
SAA was incubated with human plasma LDL (SAA-hydLDL) that had been hydrolyzed either with sPLA2-III or with sPLA2-IIa. The ~7–7.5 nm complexes, which were isolated from the incubation mixtures in …
Complexes of SAA with either lysoPC (SAA-lysoPC) or POPC (SAA-POPC) were prepared using 1:10 SAA:PC molar ratio and analyzed as follows. (A) Non-denaturing PAGE of these SAA-POPC and SAA-lysoPC …
Single-donor LDL were hydrolyzed with sPLA2-III and incubated at pH 4.5–7.5 either alone (control), with albumin (LDL + albumin) or with SAA (LDL + SAA). Next, LDL were re-isolated by density …
Free fatty acid analysis of LDL at different pH.
LDL were obtained from pooled plasma of diabetic and from healthy normolipidemic patients as previously described (Jayaraman et al., 2017b). Diabetic LDL had 20% higher content of endogenous FFA …
Free fatty analysis of normal and diabetic LDL.
(A) Complexes of hSAA1.1 with POPC, which were prepared using 1:10 protein-lipid molar ratio, were hydrolyzed with sPLA2-IIa or sPLA2-III (as indicated on the lanes). Intact non-hydrolyzed complexes …
Free fatty acid analysis of LDL incubated with human and mouse SAA.
