title: [High-density lipoproteins, total cholesterol, triglycerides and serum trypsin activity. Study in chronic alcoholic and withdrawn subjects].
abstract: Apolipoprotein is controlled by proteolytic processus and serum trypsin-like activity (STA) may be elevated in some chronic alcoholic subjects. STA, apoA lipoprotein, HDL-cholesterol, total cholesterol and triglycerides were tested in 44 men dealt in 4 groups (subjects with normal or elevated STA, alcoholic or withdrawn). Significantly lower apoA lipoprotein (p less than 0,02) and HDL-cholesterol (p less than 0,001) levels as well as significantly higher triglyceride levels (p less than 0,01) were evidenced in the group with elevated STA compared to the group with normal STA. In another way, a negative correlation between HDL-cholesterol and STA (p less than 0,01) and a positive correlation between triglycerides and STA (p less than 0,001) were noted. The different factors known to modify these lipidic parameters cannot account for such disturbances. The role of elevated STA is evoked.
