Abstract:In plasma samples of 24 patients with angiographically documented coronary artery disease the concentration of 12 proteins was determined by radial diffusion of monospecific antisera against gels containing various dilutions of plasma. The concentration of fibronectin, recently discussed to promote phagocytosis by cells of the reticulo - endothelial system, showed a good correlation (r = 0.541, 2P ≤ 0.01) with that of α-lipoprotein, a potentially antiatherogenic factor. In addition a significant correlation (r… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
