Glycoprotein Content of Serum Lipoproteins.

Abstract
The glycoprotein content, expressed as hexosamine concentration, was determined in the lipoprotein fractions of 4 human sera, separated by the use of the ultracentriguge at various densities. No more than approximately 5% of total serum hexosamine was detected in the lipoprotein fractions. The relationship of the glycoprotein and lipoprotein content of the arterial wall as it relates to the aging processes and atherosclerosis has been discussed.
