Apolipoprotein E to B ratio: a marker for type III hyperlipoproteinaemia.
Apolipoproteins B and E were determined in 40 patients with type III hyperlipoproteinaemia (familial dysbetalipoproteinaemia) and in 48 patients with other types of hyperlipoproteinaemia matched for cholesterol and triacylglycerols. In type III patients, apolipoprotein E was increased and apolipoprotein B was lower than in other types of hyperlipoproteinaemia. The apolipoprotein E to apolipopro...

OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence of type III hyperlipoproteinaemia in a cohort of HIV infected patients taking protease inhibitors and its correlation with the apolipoprotein-E2 isoform. DESIGN Cross sectional study of 57 consecutive HIV infected subjects taking protease inhibitor therapy for a median of 12.5 (1-29) months, seen in an outpatient HIV clinic. Controls were 17 patients on n...
متن کاملSheehan's syndrome presenting with type III hyperlipoproteinaemia.
A patient is described in whom the presenting feature of hypopituitarism was the development of palmar xanthomata associated with type III hyperlipoproteinaemia. Treatment of her secondary hypothyroidism with thyroxine caused resolution of the xanthomata and hyperlipidaemia, but the underlying compositional abnormality of the lipoproteins could still be observed.
متن کاملThe Apolipoprotein B/Apolipoprotein A-I Ratio as a Potential Marker of Plasma Atherogenicity
BACKGROUND The apolipoprotein (apo) B/apoA-I ratio represents the balance between apoB-rich atherogenic particles and apoA-I-rich antiatherogenic particles, and this ratio is considered to be a marker of cardiovascular risk. Although many studies have demonstrated the importance of the apoB/apoA-I ratio in predicting the presence or absence of cardiovascular disease, less is known about apoB/ap...
متن کاملThe association between small dense low density lipoprotein,apolipoprotein B, apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A1 ratio and coronary artery stenosis
Abstract Background: Recently, small dense low density lipoprotein (sdLDL) has been highlighted as a new risk factor for the coronary artery disease (CAD).Small dense LDLs are believed to be atherogenic since these particles are taken up more easily by arterial wall. They are readily oxidized and have reduced affinity for low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor and increased affinity...
