The synthesis of [S]-rHDL was modified from a published method32 . Briefly, simvastatin (AKscentific), 1-myristoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-phosphocholine (MHPC) and 1, 2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) (both purchased from Avanti Polar Lipids) were dissolved in chloroform/methanol (4:1 by volume) solvent and dried to form thin film. Human apolipoprotein A1 proteins (ApoA-1) (CSL, Parkville, Australia) dissolved in PBS was added to the film and the solution was incubated in 37°C till the film was hydrated and a homogenous solution was formed. The solution was sonicated to form small [S]-rHDL nanoparticles. Aggregates were removed by centrifugation and filtration. Gadolinium-DTPA-DMPE (Avanti Polar Lipids), Cy5.5-DMPE (DMPE was conjugated with Cy5.5 NHS-ester purchased from GE healthcare), DiR or DiO (Invitrogen) were added when the nanoparticles were subsequently used for imaging purposes. Control rHDL nanoparticles without simvastatin were synthesized with the same procedures.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
