Human lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase ELISA
Lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) is a 58 kDa glycoprotein responsible for cholesterol esterification in plasma. LCAT has an important physiological role in the maturation of nascent, discoidal high density lipoproteins (HDL) into mature, spherical HDL, through the generation of a cholesteryl ester (CE)-enriched core. Plasma and tissue accumulation of free cholesterol and nascent HDL particles have […]
