Abstract

Plasma lipoproteins represent a variety of large heterogeneous molecular aggregates that have the major function of transporting the water-insoluble lipids (particularly triacylglycerols, cholesterol, and cholesterol esters) in the blood. Lipoproteins are dynamic molecules in a constant state of synthesis and degradation, actively exchanging certain lipids and proteins with each other.
