Abstract

To determine the effect of conjugated estrogen and Org OD14 on serum lipoprotein and apolipoprotein in perimenopausal women. 74 patients were divided into 2 groups: 46 were given conjugated estrogen 0.625 mg and medroxyprogesterone acetate 4 mg daily according to the continuous sequential, regimen 28 were given Org OD14 2.5 mg every two days. Serum lipoprotein and apolipoprotein estradiol and follicle stimulating hormone were measured before and (one and two years) after treatment. Total Cholesterol (TC), Triglycerin (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL-C), Apolipoprotein AI (Apo AI), Apolipoprotein AII (Apo AII), Apolipoprotein B(Apo B), Apolipoprotein CII(Apo CII), Apolipoprotein CIII(Apo CIII), Lipoprotein(a)[Lp(a)] increased significantly (P < 0.05), while ApoB/AI, ApoCII/CIII decreased significantly(P < 0.05) in conjugated estrogen group. ApoCIII, E decreased, while ApoAI/AII increased significantly (P < 0.05) in Org OD14 group. After two years treatment, TC, HDL-C, ApoAI, ApoCIII, ApoE, TC, HDL-C, ApoAI, ApoCIII, ApoE of conjugated estrogen group were higher than those of Org OD14 group(P < 0.05), ApoCII/CIII of Conjugated estrogen was lower than that of Org OD14 group(P < 0.05). Postmenopausal hormone replacement therapy ...Continue Reading

ApoE Phenotypes

Apolipoprotein E (APOE) is a protein involved in fat metabolism and associated with the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease and cardiovascular disease. Here is the latest research on APOE phenotypes.

ApoE, Lipids & Cholesterol

Serum cholesterol, triglycerides, apolipoprotein B (APOB)-containing lipoproteins (very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), immediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL), lipoprotein A (LPA)) and the total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol ratio are all connected in diseases. Here is the latest research.
