摘要:Apolipoprotein CIII (apoCIII), a major constituent of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein, has been proposed as a key contributor to hypertriglyceridemia on the basis of its inhibitory effects on lipoprotein lipase. Many immunochemical methods have been developed for human apoCIII quantification, including ELISA. However, a sensitive and quantitative assay for nonhuman primates is not commercially available. We developed a sensitive, quantitative, and highly specific sandwich ELISA to measure apoCIII in both nonhuman primate and human serum. Our assay generates a linear calibration curve from 0.01 μg/ml to 10 μg/ml using an apoCIII standard that was purified from cynomolgus monkey serum. It is highly reproducible (intra- and interplate CV
