Values for apolipoproteins A-l and A-ll (apo A-l and apo A-ll) are reported for 389 women and 390 men in the town of Busselton, Western Australia. Apo A-l levels were found to be relatively constant with age in men but to rise with age in women. Apo A-ll levels remained constant with age in men until older age, when they declined, but rose with age in women, showing a fall in the oldest age group. Apo A-l levels were greater in women than in men, but apo A-ll levels were lower in younger women than in younger men, and higher in older women than in older men. On stepwise multiple regression analysis, neither apo A-l nor apo A-ll levels showed an independent relationship with age in women; the same was true for apo A-l in men. Alcohol consumption was directly associated with apo A-l and A-ll levels in both sexes; adiposity was inversely associated with apo A-l levels in both sexes but with apo A-ll only in women. Triglyceride levels showed an inverse association with apo A-l levels in men and a direct association with apo A-ll in women. Frequency of exercise was independently and directly associated with apo A-I and A-ll levels in women only. |
