Lipid and Apoprotein Profile in Renal Transplant Recipients

1991

Lipid and apoprotein profiles of renal transplant recipients were compared with that of a group of uremic patients on hemodialytic treatment. Total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, apo AI and apo B were higher and triglycerides, apo CII, apo CIII and apo E lower in renal transplant patients. Type IIa and IIb were the prevalent phenotypes in renal transplant recipients.

Lipoprotein a) levels in end-stage renal failure and renal transplantation

1993

Some previous studies have documented an increase in lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] levels in renal diseases. Here, we report data in subjects with end-stage renal failure treated with hemodialysis (HD) or with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) and in renal transplant recipients (RTR), compared with a group of normolipidemic controls (C). Lp(a) levels were significantly increased in HD and CAPD patients in comparison with C, while they were only slightly increased in RTR. Both HD and CAPD patients showed Lp(a) levels higher than in RTR, but no difference was found between the subjects of the two dialysis procedures. The prevalence of Lp(a) levels > 25 mg/dl was significantly higher …
