heal.abstract | Objective: To evaluate the effects of acute infection with Epstein-Barr virus (infectious mononucleosis, IM) on lipids and lipoproteins. Methods: Fasting serum levels of total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides (TGs), apolipoproteins (apo) A-I, B, E, C-II, C-III and lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] were determined in patients with IM on diagnosis and 4 months after the resolution of febrile illness and in age-and sex-matched controls. Activities of cholesteryl-ester transfer protein (CETP), lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A(2) (Lp-PLA(2)) and paraoxonase 1 (PON1) as well as levels of several cytokines were determined. LDL subclass analysis was performed with the Lipoprint LDL System. Results: Twenty-nine patients (16 males, aged 24.3 perpendicular to 14.6 years) and 30 controls were included. TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, apoA-I, apoB, apoC-III and Lp(a) levels were lower at baseline whereas apoB/apoA-I ratio, TG levels and CETP activity were elevated compared with 4 months later. At baseline, higher levels in cytokines and the cholesterol concentration of small-dense LDL particles (sdLDL-C) were noticed, whereas LDL particle size was lower compared with follow-up. Activities of Lp-PLA(2) and PON1 were similar at baseline and 4 months later. Four months after the resolution of IM levels of TGs, apoE, apoC-III, Lp(a), sdLDL-C and cytokines as well as LDL particle size, apoB/apoA-I ratio, CETP and Lp-PLA(2) activities were similar to controls. PON1 activities both at baseline and 4 months later were lower in patients compared with controls. Conclusions: IMis associated with atherogenic changes of lipids and lipoproteins that are partially restored 4 months after its resolution. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved. | en |
