Cat#:PA-1467F;Product Name:Rabbit Anti-Human Oxidized Lipoprotein Antibody;Synonym:Oxidized Lipoprotein (a); Oxidized Lp (a); Lipoprotein(a) Oxidized-Lp(a); Oxidized Lipoprotein; LPA;Background:Atherosclerosis (also known as arteriosclerotic vascular disease or ASVD) is a condition in which an artery wall thickens as a result of the accumulation of fatty materials such as cholesterol. It is a syndrome affecting arterial blood vessels, a chronic inflammatory response in the walls of arteries, caused largely by the accumulation of macrophage white blood cells and promoted by low-density lipoproteins (plasma proteins that carry cholesterol and triglycerides) without adequate removal of fats and cholesterol from the macrophages by functional high density lipoproteins (HDL), (see apoA-1 Milano). It is commonly referred to as a hardening or furring of the arteries. It is caused by the formation of multiple plaques within the arteries.;Description:Rabbit Anti-Human Oxidized Lipoprotein Polyclonal Antibody;Host Species:Rabbit;Species Reactivity:Human;Isotype:IgG1;Application:ELISA;Storage:Store antibody products at 2-8°C.
