About the test
Apolipoprotein A1 is the primary protein associated with HDL cholesterol. Like HDL cholesterol, increased concentrations are associated with reduced risk of cardiovascular disease. Apolipoprotein B-100 is the primary protein associated with LDL cholesterol and other lipid particles. Like LDL cholesterol, increased concentrations are associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. The ratio of these two apolipoproteins correlates with risk of cardiovascular disease.
Included biomarkers & Reference ranges
| Biomarker | Reference range |
|---|---|
| Apolipoprotein A-1 The main protein component of HDL ('good') cholesterol. Higher levels are generally associated with better cardiovascular protection. | 94–176 mg/dL |
| Apolipoprotein B The main protein found on LDL and other 'bad' cholesterol particles. Considered a strong indicator of cardiovascular risk, since each particle carries one ApoB molecule. | 52–80 mg/dL |
| Apolipoprotein B/Apolipoprotein A-1 A ratio calculated from apolipoprotein B and apolipoprotein A-1, comparing cholesterol-carrying particles that harm arteries with those that protect them, to assess cardiovascular risk. | — |
