1. The transport of apoprotein B from the lipoproteins of plasma into the lipoproteins of lymph draining the foot has been studied in four men with type III hyperlipoproteinaemia. 2. Three subjects were given autologous 125I-labelled very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and 131I-labelled low-density lipoprotein (LDL) by intravenous injection; the fourth was given autologous 125I-labelled VLDL and 131I-labelled intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL) plus LDL. 3. The 125I/131I ratios in serum and lymph apoprotein B, and the 125I and 131I specific radioactivities of apoprotein B in VLDL, IDL and LDL from serum and lymph, indicate that apoprotein B in the circulating VLDL can reach peripheral lymph without the intermediacy of circulating LDL.

ZUSAMMENFASSUNGDie diabetische Stoffwechsellage korreliert häufig mit einer Dyslipidämie, die sich typischerweise durch erhöhte Triglyzeride, niedriges HDL-Cholesterin und eine hohe Konzentration an small dense LDL-Cholesterin (LDL: low-density lipoprotein) auszeichnet. Zur kardiovaskulären Risikostratifizierung bei Diabetes mellitus Typ 2 eignet sich die Verwendung von Non-HDL-Cholesterin (HDL: high-density lipoprotein), um sämtliche potenziell atherogene Lipoproteine – VLDL (very-low-density lipoprotein), IDL (intermediate-density lipoprotein), LDL, Lipoprotein(a), Chylomikronen, Remnants – zu erfassen.

1. The lipid and protein composition of subfractions of plasma low-density lipoprotein (LDL) has been determined in nine patients with primary hypothyroidism before and after 3 months of thyroxine therapy. Analyses were also made of subfractions of very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) in four of the patients. 2. Before therapy seven of the patients had elevated LDL-cholesterol and two had increased VLDL-cholesterol concentrations. On thyroxine replacement the mean LDL-cholesterol fell to normal. No significant change occurred in the concentration of cholesterol in VLDL or in high-density lipoprotein (HDL). 3. The concentrations of cholesterol, triglyceride and apolipoprotein B (apoB) were increased in the LDL subfraction of Sf 10·4–20, which corresponds mainly to intermediate-density lipoprotein. This subfraction showed a marked fall on therapy. The cholesterol and apoB concentrations in the major LDL fraction of Sf 5·7–12 also decreased on therapy, but the fall in the subfraction of Sf 3·5–6·5 did not reach statistical significance. 4. Only the VLDL subfraction of smallest size (Sf 20–60) had any abnormality before therapy, with an increased concentration of cholesterol. On thyroxine the concentration of triglyceride rose in the VLDL subfractions. 5. These data suggest that thyroxine exerts its major effect on lipoprotein metabolism by promoting the conversion into LDL of intermediate-density lipoprotein, formed by catabolism of VLDL.
