Abstract: | We have developed a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for measurement of cholesterol in the major classes of serum lipoproteins, i.e., HDL, LDL, IDL, VLDL, and chylomicrons. Lipoproteins in serum were separated on a column containing diethylaminoethyl-ligand nonporous polymer-based gel by elution with a step gradient of sodium perchlorate concentration, and detected by post-column reaction with a reagent containing cholesterol esterase and cholesterol oxidase. The within-day assay and between-day assay coefficients of variation for cholesterol concentration in lipoproteins were in the ranges of 0.9-6.4% and 1.1-11.9%, respectively. The correlation coefficients between the values of HDL, LDL, IDL, VLDL, and chylomicron cholesterol measured by the HPLC method and those estimated by an ultracentrifugation method were 0.892, 0.921, 0.840, 0.930, and 0.873, respectively. Values of remnant-like particle cholesterol measured by an immunoseparation technique (Japan Immunoresearch Laboratories, Japan) were significantly correlated with VLDL and chylomicron cholesterol values measured by the HPLC method (r = 0.883 and r = 0.729, respectively).This rapid and accurate HPLC method was successfully applied to the analysis of plasma lipoproteins of patients with hyperlipidemia. |
