The results of this study indicate that very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) from the plasma of fasting normolipidemic or slightly hypertriglyceridemic subjects contains two apo B species. In SDS gel electrophoresis, the VLDL shows the presence of a major band corresponding to low density lipoprotein (LDL) apo B (apo B-100) and a minor band with the appropriate mobility of the lymph chylomicron apo B (apo B-48). The reactivity of monoclonal antibodies directed against opportunely selected human apo B suggests that the protein with the lower molecular weight corresponds to apo B-48. This finding was confirmed by using immunoadsorbants and affinity chromatography with monoclonal antibodies that react only with apo B-100. Through this method, VLDL were separated into two fractions: one that had only apo B-100 and one with both apo B-100 and apo B-48. Hepatic and intestinal VLDL may constitute different particles. The ratio of apo B-100 to apo B-48 in VLDL decreased as the mass of fasting plasma VLDL increased. This may improve our understanding of the metabolism of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. The investigation of the new subspecies of apo B may be relevant in understanding the atherogenetic process and better defining the hyperlipidemic states.

Apoprotein B-48 is a constant finding in very low density lipoproteins of humans.
