The role of plasma lipoprotein lipase, hepatic lipase and GPIHBP1 in the metabolism of remnant lipoproteins and small dense LDL in patients with coronary artery disease

The HTGL concentration was positively correlated with RLP-C and sdLDL-C, while LPL and GPIHBP1 were inversely correlated with RLP-C and sdLDL-C. These results suggest that elevated HTGL is associated with increased CAD risk, while elevated LPL is associated with a reduction of CAD risk.
