Figure 1. Diagram of the possible changes induced by remodeling and surface pressure
alterations in lipoproteins with exchangeable apolipoproteins and associated proteins based in
the models evaluated in Wang et al.6,7 Decrease in the particle volumes reduce the surface area
and can increase the surface pressure inducing desorption of loosely bound proteins.
