Abstract

Low plasma concentrations of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) are major risk factors for coronary heart disease (CHD). Low HDL levels are common in patients with hypertriglyceridemia, but they also occur in those with normal plasma lipids; the latter include obese patients and cigarette smokers, though other patients with low HDL levels are neither obese nor smokers. The present study was designed to define metabolic causes of low apoA-I levels in normal-weight, normolipidemic patients. ApoA-I tracer studies were carried out in two groups of normolipidemic patients having low HDL levels to determine input rates and residence times for ApoA-I; these patients included 11 nonobese nonsmokers and 11 nonobese cigarette smokers. Their results were compared to those of 20 normal-weight, normolipidemic controls with normal HDL levels and 12 obese nonsmokers also having low HDL. In all three groups manifesting low HDL-cholesterol and low apoA-I levels, residence times for plasma apoA-I were reduced by approximately 30%, compared to control subjects with normal HDL levels. In contrast, average input rates for apoA-I were similar among the three low-HDL patients and control subjects. No differences in apoA-I kinetics were observed among any of the three groups with low apoA-I concentrations. Within each of the four groups of the study, however, input rates for apoA-I were highly correlated with plasma concentrations of apoA-I. Thus, for individuals with normal levels of plasma lipids, both residence times and input rates for apoA-I appeared to be important determinants of apoA-I levels. Residence times for apoA-I were reduced in almost all patients with low apoA-I levels, regardless of concomitant factors, whereas input rates were highly variable among individuals.

  • Small HDL in hypertriglyceridemia is associated with hypercatabolism of apolipoprotein A-I and seems related to elevated hepatic lipase activity in central obesity and insulin resistance.

    “Small HDL in hypertriglyceridemia is associated with hypercatabolism of apolipoprotein A-I (47, 48), and it seems to be related to elevated hepatic lipase activity in central obesity and insulin resistance (49).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
