From: Haptoglobin inhibits phospholipid transfer protein activity in hyperlipidemic human plasma
a. Association between PLTP activity and haptoglobin levels in hyperlipidemic plasma (R2 = 0.5733, n = 6). PLTP activity after 60 min was determined as described in Materials and Methods. Haptoglobin levels were determined using a two site Human Haptoglobin ELISA kit. Each plasma sample was analyzed in two independent experiments, with at least two replicates per experiment. b. Association between PLTP activity and haptoglobin levels in normolipidemic plasma (R2 = 0.0007, n = 6). PLTP activity after 60 min was determined as described in Materials and Methods. Haptoglobin levels were determined using a two site Human Haptoglobin ELISA kit. Each plasma sample was analyzed in two independent experiments, with at least two replicates per experiment.
