Incorporation of nonpolar molecules into apolipoprotein-based nanostructures. Nonpolar molecules’ incorporation into apolipoprotein-based nanostructures can be achieved by different approaches. (A) Co-sonication method; (B) detergent dialysis method; (C) incorporate hydrophobic molecules into pre-formed empty nanodiscs; (D) co-sonicate 3, 10 or 17 nm gold nanoparticles (AuNP) with phospholipid vesicles and apoE3; (E) build HDL-like lipoproteins around AuNP as a core template with apoAI and phospholipids.
