Overview
Historical Perspective
- In 1949, a new method for quantitative measurement of LDL and other lipoproteins using ultracentrifuge was developed.[1]
- In 1950, the LDL was first isolated from horse serum.[2]
- In 1963, another lipoprotein, Lp(a), was discovered as a complex particle in human plasma in an immunochemical study.[3]
- In 1973, Myant first hypothesized the role of LDL in the metabolism of cholesterol.[4]
