Immunogenicity of homologous low density lipoprotein after methylation, ethylation, acetylation, or carbamylation: generation of antibodies specific for derivatized lysine.

We previously showed that immunization of guinea pigs with reductively glucosylated guinea pig low density lipoprotein (LDL) or albumin resulted in the formation of antibodies specific for the glucosylated protein. The present studies were done to determine if modifications of homologous LDL or albu...
