“…HDL 2 particles are mostly involved in removal of cholesterol from foam cells, as potent acceptors of excess cellular cholesterol [44]. In our study we found a significant reduction in the serum levels of total HDL and especially HDL 2 -C as compared with the normal population.…”

“…Although LCAT activity is reduced in HD patients, some authors have found that dialysis itself normalizes LCAT activity [20]. On the basis of ultracentrifugation, decreased HDL 2 and increased HDL 3 levels have been reported in patients with renal failure [21, 22]. …”

“…As known, HDL3-C subclass constitutes a large proportion of antioxidant enzymes within HDL, including PON1, whereas HDL2-C is mostly involved in removal of cholesterol in patients with end-stage renal disease. 7,25 The higher HDL3-C subclass levels which were shown to be related to higher PON1 activity, 4,7 may possibly explain the marginally increased PON1 concentration observed in patients treated with statins of the present study. Linear regression analysis verified the strong associations between PON1 HDL-C and HDL3-C concentrations in RF and HD groups.…”

“…We observed that the concentration of HDL3-C and not of HDL2-C subclass is lower in HD and PD patients compared with NC, which is in agreement with the report of Schiavon et al referring to HD patients. 17 However, it contradicts with other studies where decreased levels of the largest HDL2b subclass and increased levels of small HDL3a subclass were separated from plasma of HD patients by polyacrylamide gradient gel electrophoresis 16 or decreased levels of both HDL2-C and HDL3-C were found. 19,20 The above discrepancies could be either the result of different procedures of HDL-C subclass isolation or due to statistical comparison of different number of sample groups.…”

“…14 There is limited evidence concerning the comparison of oxLDL concentration in patients treated with different modes of dialysis, 15 although there are few studies about the comparison of antibodies against oxLDL in dialysis subgroups of patients. Also to our knowledge, the effect of hemodialysis (HD) on distribution of HDL subclasses in serum has been studied recently [16][17][18][19][20] but no data about the effect of peritoneal dialysis (PD) have been reported. This study attempts to look into the comparison of oxLDL levels, lipids, and lipoproteins in patients on HD and PD and in normal controls (NC).…”
