We studied the relationship of serum apolipoprotein A-II concentration with biochemical parameters of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, type of hyperlipidemia, and insulin sensitivity in male patients with hyperlipidemia. High concentration of apolipoprotein A-II was associated with increased indices of atherogenic lipoproteins and high-density lipoprotein-mediated reverse cholesterol transport, combined hyperlipidemia, and decreased insulin sensitivity calculated with consideration for glucose and insulin levels in glucose tolerance test and body weight.
