  • Alterations of lipid metabolism in healthy volunteers during long-term ethanol intake
  • 1977

    • Nine young, healthy male volunteers were given ethanol (75 g/day) for 5 weeks. The ethanol was divided into five daily doses and taken so that blood ethanol levels never exceeded 0.04% (w/v). During the latter part of the ethanol intake period, there was a significant, transient increase of plasma triglyceride (TG) concentrations followed by reduction to normal levels. A three-fold increase of lipoprotein lipase activity (LLA) occurred in biopsy specimens of adipose tissue. An increase of alpha-lipoprotein concentrations, which correlated significantly with the decrease in plasma TG levels and the increase in adipose LLA, was also observed during the ethanol intake period. No changes were observed in plasma cholesterol and beta-lipoprotein levels. A transient, three-fold increase of TG concentrations occurred in liver biopsy specimens. Ultrastructural and cytochemical examinations of the biopsy specimens showed hyperplasia of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum, and increased canallicular activity of gamma-glutamyl transferase (gamma-GT) activity in most subjects towards the end of and after the ethanol intake period. Serum gamma-GT levels also increased significantly.

  • Mutations in the low-density lipoprotein receptor gene in Swedish familial hypercholesterolaemia patients: clinical expression and treatment response
  • 1998

    • BACKGROUND: Familial hypercholesterolaemia, an autosomal co-dominant disorder caused by defects in the low-density lipoprotein receptor gene, is strongly associated with premature development of cardiovascular disease. METHODS: In this study, we have applied a gene screening method in a population of familial hypercholesterolaemia patients in order to describe the genetic background of the disease in southern Sweden. These patients were studied with the aim of relating the presence of the different mutations to the clinical expression of the disease and to the response to pharmacological treatment. RESULTS: In 16 out of 21 patients, potentially disease-causing low-density lipoprotein receptor gene defects were found, including five not previously described alterations (C240-->F, C122-->stop, C356-->Y, 785insG, 165delG). No defects in apolipoprotein B were found. One group of patients (n = 4) carried the mutation C122-->stop and another group of patients (n = 4) a mutation causing the substitution W66-->G. Patients in the two genotype subgroups were very similar with respect to lipid levels before treatment. CONCLUSION: A tendency towards differential susceptibility to treatment with statins was observed for the patient groups, encouraging further comparative studies of heterozygous FH patients.

    • Human plasma samples from 50 wives of fishermen have been analyzed with respect to PCBs. The non-ortho-substituted PCB congeners CB-126 and CB-169 were determined by mass spectrometry in negative ion chemical ionization mode, which demonstrated a limit of detection of 30 fg. The recoveries of the internal standards used for determination of ortho-substituted CBs were approximately 95%. Two methods, one gravimetric and the other based on enzymatic determinations of triglycerides, cholesterol and phospholipids, were compared for the determination of total amount of lipids in the plasma samples; the correlation coefficient was 0.82 and the slope 0.98. For practical reasons, enzymatic determinations are recommended for further use. The total, lipid-adjusted concentrations of PCBs in plasma were influenced by age, total lactation time and consumption of fatty fish from the Baltic Sea.

  • Plasma high density lipoproteins and lipolytic enzyme activities in diabetic patients
  • 1983
  • Ingår i: Acta Medica Scandinavica. - 0001-6101. ; 213:2, s. 123-128
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Eighty diabetic patients, consecutively selected from an out-patient clinic, were studied with regard to plasma lipoprotein levels, especially HDL. Patients treated with sulphonylureas had 24% lower HDL cholesterol concentrations (p less than 0.01) but only about 7% lower apo AI levels (n.s.) than those on insulin treatment. This difference could at least partly be explained by differences in age and type of diabetes. There was no relationship between the degree of diabetic control, as measured by fasting blood glucose levels, and HDL levels. In two subgroups of insulin-treated diabetics, selected to represent extremely low and high HDL levels (range 0.5-0.8 and 1.8-2.0 mmol/l, respectively) but matched with regard to age, duration of diabetes, insulin dosage and diabetic control, the activities of lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase in postheparin plasma were also recorded. The high HDL group had significantly higher lipoprotein lipase activities (p less than 0.01) and significantly lower hepatic lipase activities (p less than 0.05) than the low HDL group, supporting the hypothetical roles of these enzymes in HDL metabolism, and offering a tentative mechanism behind the large variability of HDL levels in diabetics.

  • Plasma lipids and plasma lipoproteins in diabetics with and without proliferative retinopathy
  • 1988
  • Ingår i: Acta Medica Scandinavica. - 0001-6101. ; 223:2, s. 165-169
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The single most important factor related to the development of diabetic retinopathy is the duration of diabetes. Little is known about the underlying mechanisms, but many factors have been suggested to be involved, among them derangements in plasma lipids and plasma lipoproteins. In the present study we examined the relation between plasma lipids, plasma lipoproteins, and the duration of diabetes in Type I diabetics with and without proliferative retinopathy. The duration of diabetes in the two groups was 12.2 +/- 2.8 and 21.5 +/- 9.0 years, respectively (mean +/- SD; p less than 0.01). Except for moderately low HDL levels, plasma lipid and lipoprotein concentrations were normal in both groups of patients. The levels of lipids and lipoproteins did not correlate with the duration of diabetes. Furthermore, no differences were seen between patients with and without proliferative retinopathy. Thus, the present study does not indicate that plasma lipids and plasma lipoproteins play any major role in the development of diabetic proliferative retinopathy.

  • Effects of short-term treatment with corticotropin on the serum apolipoprotein pattern
  • 2001
  • Ingår i: Scandinavian Journal of Clinical & Laboratory Investigation. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1502-7686 .- 0036-5513. ; 61:4, s. 301-306

    • Treatment with adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) has a well-documented cholesterol-lowering effect. Increased uptake of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) by HepG2 cells in response to incubation with ACTH has been demonstrated but the precise cholesterol-lowering mechanism has resisted elucidation. Since apolipoproteins are important determinants of lipoprotein metabolism, we sought to extend the knowledge of the effect of ACTH treatment on the serum apolipoprotein (apo) pattern. Twelve healthy individuals and 14 dyslipoproteinemic hemodialysis patients were recruited. The two groups responded similarly to ACTH1-24 at the dose of 1 mg daily for four days. In accordance with previous results, serum concentrations of total cholesterol decreased by 18% and 17%, LDL cholesterol by 25% and 30%, and apo B by 20% and 19%, respectively, while there were no significant changes in the serum concentrations of triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and apo AI. Novel findings were that the serum concentrations of total apo E increased by 48% and 31%, and apo B-associated apo E by 69% and 46%, respectively. Moreover, in the healthy individuals, the serum concentrations of apo CIII did not change in response to ACTH, whereas in the hemodialysis patients, those of apo CIII not associated with apo B increased significantly by 44%. Since apo E binds strongly to the LDL receptor, the present results suggest that the cholesterol-lowering effect of ACTH may be mediated by facilitated hepatic uptake of apo E-enriched apo B-containing lipoproteins. Thus, the findings stimulate further research.

  • The effect of reduced glomerular filtration rate on plasma total homocysteine concentration
  • 1996
  • Ingår i: Scandinavian Journal of Clinical & Laboratory Investigation. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1502-7686 .- 0036-5513. ; 56:1, s. 41-46

    • The concentration of homocysteine in plasma has been shown to be increased in renal failure, possibly contributing to the accelerated atherosclerosis observed in uraemic patients. The aim of the present study was to document the relationship between plasma total homocysteine (tHcy) concentrations and glomerular filtration rates (GFR) in highly selected patients, with renal function ranging from normal to dialysis dependency. GFR was defined as the plasma clearance of iohexol; a more accurate method than the creatinine-based estimations applied in previous studies. Plasma tHcy concentrations were highly correlated to GFR (r = -0.70, p < 0.0001) and were significantly increased already in moderate renal failure. According to a multiple regression analysis, GFR and red cell folate concentrations independently predicted plasma tHcy concentrations, whereas those of serum creatinine, plasma pyridoxal-5-phosphate, urine albumin and urine alpha-1-microglobulin (a marker of tubular damage) did not. Thus, GFR seems to be a better determinant of plasma tHcy concentration than serum creatinine concentration. Plasma total cysteine and total cysteinylglycine concentrations followed the same pattern as those of tHcy.

  • Experimental hyperthyroidism in man: effects on plasma lipoproteins, lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase
  • 1983
  • Ingår i: Hormone and Metabolic Research. - 1439-4286. ; 15:9, s. 449-452
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • We have studied the effects of triiodothyronine administration (20-40 micrograms three times daily over one week) in six healthy young men, on the activities of lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase and on plasma lipoprotein concentrations. Hepatic lipase activity in post-heparin plasma rose by 46 +/- 25% (p less than 0.025), whereas the activity of lipoprotein lipase did not change significantly. Plasma cholesterol concentrations decreased by about 20% (p less than 0.025), whereas there was no change in plasma triglyceride levels. The fall in plasma cholesterol could be accounted for by a reduction of HDL cholesterol (-11%, p less than 0.025) as well as LDL cholesterol (-27%, p less than 0.025). The data emphasize the role of hepatic lipase in the lipoprotein alterations associated with thyroid dysfunction.
