A Study on Serum Lipids and Apolipoprotein in Patients with Gallstone

Objective To probe into disorder of plasma lipids and apolipoproteins in patients with gallstone,and their position and function in formation of gallstone. MethodsConcentration of plasma lipids and apolipoproteins in 94 healthy subjects and 161 patients with gallstones was investigated. ResultsThe gallstone group had a higher serum mean concentration of TG,Apo CⅡ,Apo CⅢ, and had a lower serum mean concentration of TC，HDLc，HDL2c，HDL3c and LDLc as compared with the control group (P＜0.01 or P＜0.05). Conclusion Higher serum mean concentration of TG，Apo CⅡ，Apo CⅢ, and lower serum mean concentration of TC, HDLc, HDL2c, HDL3c and LDLc, are characteristic of lipids metabolism and important cause of formation of gallstone.
