Quantitative and qualitative changes of apolipoprotein AI-containing lipoproteins in patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.
Using immunoaffinity chromatography, two species of apo-AI containing lipoproteins (AILp); lipoprotein containing apo-AI and apo-AII (Lp-AI/AII), and lipoprotein containing apo-AI, but no apo-AII (Lp-AI) were isolated from 13 female patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), then characterized. The results were compared with findings obtained in agematched normolipidemic (control I) and mild hypertriglyceridemic (control II) female subjects. In comparison with control I: In AILp, the levels of total cholesterol (TC), cholesteryl ester (CE) and phospholipid (PL), and the levels of apoE were significantly lower in the CAPD patients while the levels of triglyceride (TG) and apo-CIII were significantly higher in these patients. The levels of apo-AI and apo-AII did not differ between the CAPD and control subjects. In Lp-AI/AII, changes of TC, CE, PL, TG, and apolipoproteins were similar to those of AILp, except for the ratio of apo-AI/apo-AII and the level of apo-CII, which was higher in the CAPD patients. In Lp-AI, changes of TC, CE, PL, and TG were also similar to those of AILp and Lp-AI/AII, but the apo-AI level was significantly lower in the CAPD patients. In comparison with control II: In AILp, the levels of PL, apo-AI, apo-AII, and apo-E were significantly lower in CAPD patients, but the apo-CIII levels were significantly higher. In Lp-AI/AII, the levels of PL and apo-E were significantly lower in CAPD patients.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
