Hemin binding and oxidation of lipoproteins in serum: mechanisms and effect on the interaction of LDL with human macrophages1
Most models of lipoprotein oxidation by free radicals have excluded macromolecular plasma components from the system. This limits their biological significance because oxidation of lipoproteins appears to occur in the intima in the presence of a plasma ultrafiltrate. Hemin, a product of in vivo hemo...
