Those subjects with the mutated AA genotype of the MspI polymorphism (-75 G-->A) of Apo AI had a greater risk of impaired glucose tolerance [odds ratio (OR) = 1.95, CI = 1.02-3.8, P = 0.05], Type 2 diabetes mellitus, both known (OR = 7.38, CI = 1.3-39.7, P = 0.02) and unknown (OR = 3.7, CI = 1.4-9.9, P = 0.009).
The hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) derived from the Cox proportional hazards model were used to analyze the longitudinal associations of apolipoprotein B (apo B), apolipoprotein A-I (apo A-I), and the apo B/apo A-I ratio with the risk of type 2 diabetes.
In conclusion, we found that men with type 2 diabetes having the Ala-isoform of PPARγ Pro12Ala had an unfavorable cardiovascular risk profile, whereas women with this isoform had lower carotid-radial PWV and higher apolipoprotein A1 levels suggesting a beneficial prognosis.
To better understand how changes in HDL structure may affect diet-induced obesity and type 2 diabetes we aimed at investigating the impact of Apoa1 or Lcat deficiency, two key proteins of peripheral HDL metabolic pathway, on these pathological conditions in mouse models.
To elucidate the association of lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) with diabetic retinopathy (DR), we studied the serum Lp(a) concentrations (n = 412), apolipoprotein(a) (apo(a)) phenotypes expressed by the number of kringle 4 (K4) repeats (n = 150), apo(a) gene genotypes (n = 161) of type 2 diabetes with or without DR.
Association of two apolipoprotein A-I gene MspI polymorphisms with high density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol levels and indices of obesity in selected healthy Chinese subjects and in patients with early-onset type 2 diabetes.
In conclusion, because various genes, LDLR, CETP, APOA5, Apo E, Apo B, and Apo A-I, are associated with the precipitation of CAD associated with T2DM, a personalized diet-gene intervention therapy may be advocated to reduce the disease precipitation.
We studied the association of HDL cholesterol (HDL-C), apoA1, apoCIII, apoD, and apoE as well as the ratios of apolipoproteins with apoA1 with the risk of T2D.
The polymorphism was not associated with fatty liver, however, under dominant model, the TT genotype was associated with increased levels of triglycerides (P=0.0002), apolipoprotein A1 (P=0.015), triglycerides/HDL-cholesterol index (P=0.046) and increased frequency of type 2 diabetes mellitus (P=0.045).
Antibodies Against the C-Terminus of ApoA-1 Are Inversely Associated with Cholesterol Efflux Capacity and HDL Metabolism in Subjects with and without Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
In conclusion, (1) the presence of NIDDM in the proband appears to be associated in siblings with more profound lipid and lipoprotein changes (especially low HDL cholesterol and high total triglycerides) than a history of CHD in the proband, (2) a history of CHD in the proband is associated in children with apolipoprotein changes favouring atherosclerosis (low apolipoprotein A1, high apolipoprotein B, low apolipoprotein A1/B ratio).
These results suggest that BMI, the age of onset of diabetes, HBV infection, TBIL, ALT, Cr, APO-A1, and WBC are factors that could differentiate PC + DM from common type 2 -diabetes and may be used for early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.
ApoM/HDL-C and apoM/apoA1 ratios could be used as indicators for identification of DN from healthy people (AUC=0.597, P=0.016; AUC=0.665, P=0.000, respectively) and from T2DM (AUC=0.580, P=0.050; AUC=0.601, P=0.015, respectively).
The apolipoprotein A-I (apo A-I) concentrations in the tears from NIDDM patients with retinopathy were significantly higher than those from patients with no or negligible retinopathy (P<0.05), and apo A-I was not detected in healthy subjects by Western blotting.
Compared with the lowest quartile of apoB/apoA1 ratio, participants in the fourth quartile had a higher odds of type 2 diabetes [odds ratio (OR) = 1.35, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.01-1.81].Our results suggest that, higher apoB/apoA1 ratio was associated with higher prevalence of type 2 diabetes.
Low HDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein A-I levels often are found in association with other cardiovascular risk factors, including the metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
