title: [Serum apolipoprotein C II, C III and E levels in 437 male healthy subjects aged 40-70 in Chengdu area].
abstract: Apolipoprotein (apo) C II, C III and E levels of 437 male healthy subjects aged 40-70 [with fasting serum triglyceride (TG levels < 2.26 mmol/L, total cholesterol (TC) levels < 6.21 mmol/L and plasma glucose levels < 6.10 mmol/L] in Changdu area were determined by radial immunodiffusion assay (RID). The results showed that the concentrations of apoC II, C III and E were 41.6 +/- 13.1, 112.8 +/- 31.0 and 38.7 +/- 8.2 mg/L (mean +/- s) respectively. No difference in the serum levels of apoC II, C III and E was noted between the men of different ages. The results of the linear correlation showed that there was a positive correlation of apoC II, C III, E with TG, TC, LDL-C; of apoC II, C III with BMI; and of apoE with ages.
