Serum lipids and apolipoproteins in families of postinfarction men. 1987

A Jirkovská, and J Válek, and D Grafnetter, and K Vondra, and J Skibová

The study of relatives of postinfarction patients was designed to assess the familial associations of lipids (total cholesterol, triglycerides, high density lipoprotein-cholesterol), and of apolipoproteins A and B. Examination of 493 individuals from 106 families showed only some familial associations of serum lipids between mothers and offspring and among siblings, but similar associations in apolipoproteins among all groups of direct relatives (i.e. between mothers and offspring, among siblings and between fathers and offspring). Associations among direct relatives, and their absence between spouses, suggest the genetic influence on lipoproteins. Apolipoproteins appear to be a more suitable means of detecting such associations than serum lipid levels.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008055 Lipids A generic term for fats and lipoids, the alcohol-ether-soluble constituents of protoplasm, which are insoluble in water. They comprise the fats, fatty oils, essential oils, waxes, phospholipids, glycolipids, sulfolipids, aminolipids, chromolipids (lipochromes), and fatty acids. (Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed) Lipid

D000328 Adult A person having attained full growth or maturity. Adults are of 19 through 44 years of age. For a person between 19 and 24 years of age, YOUNG ADULT is available. Adults
D001054 Apolipoproteins A Structural proteins of the alpha-lipoproteins (HIGH DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS), including APOLIPOPROTEIN A-I and APOLIPOPROTEIN A-II. They can modulate the activity of LECITHIN CHOLESTEROL ACYLTRANSFERASE. These apolipoproteins are low in atherosclerotic patients. They are either absent or present in extremely low plasma concentration in TANGIER DISEASE. Apo-A,ApoA
D001055 Apolipoproteins B Major structural proteins of triacylglycerol-rich LIPOPROTEINS. There are two forms, apolipoprotein B-100 and apolipoprotein B-48, both derived from a single gene. ApoB-100 expressed in the liver is found in low-density lipoproteins (LIPOPROTEINS, LDL; LIPOPROTEINS, VLDL). ApoB-48 expressed in the intestine is found in CHYLOMICRONS. They are important in the biosynthesis, transport, and metabolism of triacylglycerol-rich lipoproteins. Plasma Apo-B levels are high in atherosclerotic patients but non-detectable in ABETALIPOPROTEINEMIA. Apo-B,Apo B,ApoB,Apoprotein (B),Apoproteins B
