title: Changes in plasma lipoproteins from first day to third week of life in healthy breast-fed infants. I. Lipid and protein composition of lipoproteins.
abstract: Plasma lipoproteins were measured in seven healthy breast-fed infants three times during the first and on the third, sixth and twenty-first days of life. Plasma total beta-lipoprotein, very low density and low density lipoprotein increased three times during the first week of life. Plasma total apolipoprotein A-I and high density lipoprotein increased twice between the first and third week of life. These dramatic changes in plasma lipoprotein concentrations during the neonatal period can best be explained by the effect of feeding.
