Apolipoprotein A1 (Apo A1) ( BC0036 )

Description

Apolipoprotein A1 (Apo A1) test measures the primary protein component of HDL (good cholesterol) responsible for reverse cholesterol transport from peripheral tissues to the liver. Higher Apo A1 levels are associated with cardioprotective effects, while low levels indicate increased risk of atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease, and cardiovascular events.

Apo A1 provides a more specific assessment of HDL functionality than HDL-C alone and is valuable in cardiovascular risk stratification, metabolic syndrome evaluation, and lipid disorder assessment. Often interpreted with Apolipoprotein B (Apo B) and the Apo A1/Apo B ratio, this test supports precise evaluation of lipid-related cardiac risk.
