A fast semi-quantitative LC-MS method for measurement of intact apolipoprotein A-I reveals novel proteoforms in serum.

Summary, in English
Surrogate markers for reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) efficiency such as HDL cholesterol and immune methods for apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) may not fully reflect the actual efficiency of the RCT pathway. Several genetic variants and different posttranslational proteoforms of ApoA-I may unevenly affect the functionality of the HDL particle to efflux cholesterol. A method employing top-down immunoaffinity LC-MS of ApoA-I in order to characterize the most prevalent ApoA-I proteoforms in human plasma is described.
