Protein, glycoprotein and glycolipid profiles of human arterial and venous tissues.
Selected normal human arteries and veins were solubilized with detergents, neutral salt buffers and organic solvents. Comparative sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gels and thin layer chromatographic plates were developed and the patterns compared. The low molecular weight periodic acid--Schiff positive band seen in crude detergent extracts of vascular tissue is predominantly glycolipid. Arterial and venous tissues closely resemble one another with only minor differences in the glycoprotein and glycolipid patterns.
