High-density lipoprotein (HDL) subclasses 2 and 3 prepared by density gradient ultracentrifugation have been further fractionated by immunoaffinity chromatography using antibody affinity gels targetting the major HDL apolipoproteins, A-I and A-II. Fractions containing A-I without A-II (AI w/o AII) and A-I with A-II (AI w AII) were isolated from both density ranges. Whereas there were similar concentrations of the major subfraction (HDL3(AI w AII] in both males and females, the remaining subfractions were present in higher concentrations in females as compared to males, in the order HDL3 (AI w/o AII) less than HDL2(AI w AII) less than HDL2(AI w/o AII). The difference was most marked for HDL2 (AI w/o AII), where plasma concentrations in females were almost 3-fold greater than in males. Compositional analyses indicated that the plasma concentrations of the fractions, rather than their compositions, were the major determinants of male-female differences in HDL levels. In contrast, fractions defined by similar apolipoprotein criteria and isolated from different density subclasses (i.e., HDL2(AI w/o AII) vs. HDL3(AI w/o AII) and HDL2(AI w AII) vs. HDL3(AI w AII] showed major compositional differences. This is suggestive of distinct lipoprotein particles.
