Jiumbunjong N Apolipoprotein (apo) E is an important component of plasma lipoproteins and influences
lipoprotein metabolism through its action as a receptor ligand. The association of serum apo E
concentrations and coronary artery diseases (CAD) was investigated in 100 CAD patients (71 men,
29 women, mean age 62.0 years) and 155 healthy volunteers (87 men, 68 women, mean age 50.6
years). Patients with CAD had lower serum apo E concentrations (5.1เธ‘1.3 mg/dL) than the healthy
volunteers (5.9เธ‘1.8 mg/dL, p
