title: High density lipoprotein cholesterol and apolipoprotein a-1 concentrations in non-insulin dependent diabetics treated by diet and chlorpropamide.
abstract: Fasting serum concentrations of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC) and apolipoprotein A-I (apo A-I) were determined in non-insulin dependent diabetes at diagnosis, diabetics treated by diet alone, diabetics treated by diet plus chlorpropamide, and normal controls matched for sex, age and body weight. Serum concentrations of HDLC and apo A-I were decreased in all groups of diabetics. There were no significant differences in HDLC and apo A-I concentrations between the diabetics at diagnosis and those treated by diet alone or diet plus chlorpropamide. Neither HDLC nor apo A-I concentrations were correlated with glucose concentrations. The results indicate that serum concentrations of HDLC and apo A-I are reduced in non-insulin dependent diabetics at diagnosis, and are not significantly affected by chronic diet and chlorpropamide therapy.
