[Apoprotein E (apo E) phenotype and serum lipids in diabetics].
Apo E isoforms have been determined among diabetics. The allele distribution epsilon 2, epsilon 3 and epsilon 4 does not differ from the control population. Diabetics with epsilon 2 allele have increased serum triglycerides compared to diabetics with epsilon 3 and epsilon 4 alleles. In diabetics with E2/2 phenotype both serum cholesterol and serum triglycerides are elevated. The phenotype of apoprotein E does influence serum lipids in diabetics.
