Serum lipid and lipoprotein-cholesterol values in cord blood and on the sixth postnatal day in newborns of varying maturity. 1984

P Tóth, and L Klujber, and Z Baranyai, and E Molnár

Triglyceride, total cholesterol, phospholipid, HDL-cholesterol, VLDL-cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol concentrations were studied in 22 eutrophic, 16 true premature and 22 small-for-gestational age neonates in cord blood and on the 6th postnatal day. According to the findings the lipid-lipoprotein metabolism was influenced primarily by gestational age. Parallel with increasing gestational age, phospholipid and triglyceride concentrations rose whereas cholesterol values decreased. Postnatal changes of lipid-lipoprotein metabolism developed more slowly in premature than in mature newborns. The effects of intrauterine malnutrition manifested themselves mainly in differences of the triglyceride and phospholipid levels.

D008074 Lipoproteins Lipid-protein complexes involved in the transportation and metabolism of lipids in the body. They are spherical particles consisting of a hydrophobic core of TRIGLYCERIDES and CHOLESTEROL ESTERS surrounded by a layer of hydrophilic free CHOLESTEROL; PHOSPHOLIPIDS; and APOLIPOPROTEINS. Lipoproteins are classified by their varying buoyant density and sizes. Circulating Lipoproteins,Lipoprotein,Lipoproteins, Circulating

D008079 Lipoproteins, VLDL A class of lipoproteins of very light (0.93-1.006 g/ml) large size (30-80 nm) particles with a core composed mainly of TRIGLYCERIDES and a surface monolayer of PHOSPHOLIPIDS and CHOLESTEROL into which are imbedded the apolipoproteins B, E, and C. VLDL facilitates the transport of endogenously made triglycerides to extrahepatic tissues. As triglycerides and Apo C are removed, VLDL is converted to INTERMEDIATE-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS, then to LOW-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS from which cholesterol is delivered to the extrahepatic tissues.
