Problems solved by technology

However, a problem with this approach is that it is still not known what structure of oxidized LDL induces a protective immune response, and whether oxidized LDL also contains epitopes that could elicit an adverse immune response

Embodiment Construction

[0033] The molecular characterization of epitopes of oxidized LDL that lead to antibody-dependent immune responses in humans was investigated. The method used takes advantage of the fact that immune responses are almost always directed against peptide sequences with a length of 5 to 6 amino acids. LDL contains only one protein, apolipoprotein B, which is 4563 amino acids in length. During oxidation, apolipoprotein B is cleaved and aldehyde adducts are attached to positively charged amino acids, particularly lysine. This means that immune cells have access to peptide sequences that are not normally exposed to the immune system due to the three-dimensional structure of apolipoprotein B, and / or that normally exposed peptide sequences bind aldehydes to haptenize them, thus possessing immunogenicity.

[0034] Therefore, the following peptides, whether in their native form or as MDA derivatives, should be present in sufficient quantities to generate an immune response are:
