This study aimed to determine high-density lipoprotein (HDL) subfraction profile and HDL-associated enzyme changes in liver failure patients and healthy donors.
Objectives: This study aimed to determine high-density lipoprotein (HDL) subfraction profile and HDL-associated enzyme changes in liver failure patients and healthy donors. Materials and Methods: Twenty liver failure patients and twenty healthy donors are selected. Blood samples obtained from all patients prior to transplant will analyzed. HDL subfraction analysis will done by continuous disc polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Plasma levels of apolipoprotein A-1 (ApoA-I), cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP), and lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) will determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
