Objective: To assess the influence of serum triglyceride (TG) level and total cholesterol (TC) level on the change of the contents of serum HDL subpopulations.
Methods: The apolipoprotein (apo) A-I contents of serum HDL subpopulations in 289 subjects were determined by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis associated with immunodetection method.
Results: Analysis of the data on the serum TG levels in subjects revealed that the apoA-I contents of pre beta 1-HDL, pre beta 2-HDL, HDL3b and HDL3a increased with the increase of TG level, whereas the apoA-I contents of HDL2a and HDL2b decreased. By comparison with the data of normal TG group, the apoA-I contents of pre beta 1-HDL and HDL3b in the high TG and very high TG groups were significantly higher, whereas those of HDL2b were significantly lower in the high TG and very high TG groups. Analysis of the data on the serum TC levels in subjects revealed that the apoA-I contents of pre beta 1-HDL, pre beta 2-HDL, HDL2c and HDL3b increased with the increase of TC level, while the apoA-I contents of HDL2b decreased. As compared with the data of TC desirable group, the apoA-I contents of pre beta 1-HDL, HDL3c and HDL3b were significantly higher in the high TC group.
Conclusion: With the increase of serum TG or TC, there is a general shift toward small-sized HDL in subjects. Besides, the change of serum TG level is a more important factor influencing the components of HDL subpopulations, compared with the change of serum TC level.

Approximately 20% of ischemic strokes are attributed to the presence of atherosclerosis. Lipoproteins play a crucial role in the development of atherosclerosis, with LDL promoting atherogenesis and HDL inhibiting it. Therefore, both their concentrations and their biological properties are decisive factors in atherosclerotic processes.

The ability of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) to promote cellular cholesterol efflux is a more robust predictor of cardiovascular disease protection than HDL-cholesterol levels in plasma. Previously, we found that lipidated HDL containing both apolipoprotein A-I (APOA1) and A-II (APOA2) promotes cholesterol efflux via the ATP-binding cassette transporter (ABCA1). In the current study, we directly added purified, lipid-free APOA2 to human plasma and found a dose-dependent increase in whole plasma cholesterol efflux capacity.

In rheumatoid arthritis (RA), the risk of cardiovascular death is 50% higher compared to the general population. This increased risk is partly due to the systemic inflammation characteristic of RA and changes in the lipoprotein profiles. This study investigated plasma lipid levels, lipid ratios, and the composition and functionality of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in control individuals and RA subjects based on the disease's inflammatory score (DAS28).

Given the failure of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) raising therapies to reduce cardiovascular disease risk, attention has turned towards HDL composition and vascular protective functions. In individuals with insulin resistance, exercise interventions recover HDL function. However, the effect of exercise on HDL in otherwise healthy individuals is unknown.
