Apolipoprotein M in patients with chronic kidney disease

Plasma apolipoprotein M (APOM) is bound to HDL-particles and has anti-atherogenic effects. The present study explored whether plasma APOM is reduced in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), and associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD). In addition, we tested the hypothesis that the excreti...

Description
Summary:Plasma apolipoprotein M (APOM) is bound to HDL-particles and has anti-atherogenic effects. The present study explored whether plasma APOM is reduced in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), and associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD). In addition, we tested the hypothesis that the excretion of APOM into the urine is increased in patients with kidney disease. Plasma samples were collected from a cohort of patients with CKD stages 1 to 5D (N = 409) and controls (N = 35). Urine was collected from 47 subjects. Plasma APOM was measured with sandwich ELISA and urine APOM with competitive ELISA. Plasma APOM levels were reduced in patients with CKD stages 3-5D as compared to patients with CKD stages 1 + 2 and controls (p
