Greater oxidative susceptibility of the surface monolayer in small dense LDL may contribute to differences in copper-induced oxidation among LDL density subfractions.

We monitored peroxidative stress in the surface monolayer as compared with the outer core of large, buoyant (d 1.025-1.032 g/ml) and small, dense (d 1.040-1.054 g/ml) low density lipoprotein (LDL) subfractions using the oxidation-labile fluorescent probes parinaric acid (PnA) and parinaric acid meth...
