| Popis: | Proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectra at 500 MHz of plasma and the very low density lipoprotein (VLDL), low density lipoprotein (LDL), and high density lipoprotein (HDL) fractions isolated by KBr gradient ultracentrifugation were analysed in 16 cancer patients, six pregnant and nine non-pregnant healthy subjects. In spectra with narrow plasma composite aliphatic peaks (methylene at 1.2-1.4 p.p.m. and methyl at 0.8-0.9 p.p.m., respectively), a relative increase in either VLDL, LDL, or both, or a decrease in HDL signals was observed. The mechanism for line-width narrowing seemed different in cancer patients (less signals from HDL relative to VLDL) compared with pregnant women (more signals from LDL). By reconstitution of plasma samples from both healthy subjects and patients with malignant disease, decreased concentration of VLDL or HDL resulted in broadening or narrowing of the composite peaks, respectively. The effects of VLDL and HDL on the plasma line width were moderated by the signals from LDL. Within lipoprotein fractions, the methylene and methyl resonances were shifted to a higher field with increased observation temperature, the change in shift being greatest for HDL. The line width of composite peaks in plasma varied with the observation temperature, depending on the relative concentrations of individual lipoproteins. The correlation coefficient (r) for the relation between total plasma triglyceride level and the average of the line-width of the composite methylene and methyl peaks was -0.78 (p less than 0.001). For spectra of individual lipoproteins, statistical significant relationships were found between line-widths and triglyceride content of the LDL fraction (methyl line-width, r = -0.63) (p less than 0.001) and between methylene line-width and cholesterol of HDL (r = 0.54) (p = 0.003). In summary, the shape and width of the composite aliphatic peaks of plasma were affected by the relative concentration, chemical shift and transition temperature of both VLDL, LDL, and HDL, and by the total triglyceride level. Comparing pregnancy and malignant disease, the lipoprotein resonances contributed differently in giving narrow composite signals. |
