Abstract

Surface lipids in lipoproteins interact with proteins and receptors at the surface of cell membranes, mediating lipoprotein-cell signaling and trafficking events. Despite this, little is known about lipoproteins' surface lipid composition and any changes introduced by type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Herein, we investigate the surface lipid composition in purified VLDL, LDL and HDL populations isolated from patients with poor (PC, HbA1c>8.5%) and good glycemic control (GC, HbA1c
