| Abstract | Purpose. The purpose of this study was to determine if lipid transfer protein (LTP I) facilitated triglyceride (TG) transfer activity regulates the plasma lipoprotein distribution of cyclosporine (CSA). Methods. To assess the influence of drug concentration and incubation time on the plasma lipoprotein distribution of CSA, $^{3}$H-CSA (50 to 1000 ng/ml) was incubated in human plasma for 5 to 120 minutes at 37°C. To determine if LTP I facilitated TG transfer activity regulates the plasma lipoprotein distribution of CSA, $^{3}$H-Triolein (TG)- or $^{3}$H-CSA-enriched high-density lipoproteins (HDL) or low-density lipoproteins (LDL) were incubated in T150 buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 150 mM NaCl, 0.02% Sodium Azide, 0.01% Disodium EDTA), pH 7.4 which contained a $^{3}$H-Triolein (TG) or $^{3}$H-CSA-free lipoprotein counterpart ± exogenous LTP I (1.0 μg protein/ml) or in delipidated human plasma which contained 1.0 μg protein/ml of endogenous LTP I for 90 minutes at 37°C. These experiments were repeated in the presence of a monoclonal antibody TP1 (15 μg protein/ml) directed against LTP I. Results. No differences in CSA lipoprotein distribution were observed following incubation of the drug at varying concentrations and incubation times in human plasma. The percent transfer of TG from HDL to LDL and LDL to HDL was greater in T150 buffer than in human plasma. However, the percent transfer of CSA from only LDL to HDL was greater in T150 buffer than in human plasma. Furthermore, undetectable $^{3}$H-CSA transfer from HDL to LDL in T150 buffer containing purified LTP I was observed. In addition, when the percent transfer of TG and CSA were determined in the presence of TP1, the percent transfer of TG and CSA from only LDL to HDL were significantly decreased in T150 buffer and human plasma compared to controls. Conclusions. These findings suggest that the transfer of CSA between different lipoprotein particles is only partially influenced by LTP I facilitated TG transfer activity. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
