Differential expression analysis was performed on VLDL, LDL, and HDL fractions from 4 pooled plasma samples of 79 patients having severe atherosclerosis and 4 pooled plasma samples of 57 healthy volunteers revealing no differences in the relative abundance of all identified apolipoproteins (Figure 2) with the exception of AP SAA that was more abundant (2.3-, 14.0-, and 1.5-fold in VLDL, LDL, and HDL fractions, resp). The gene discussed is DHCR7-DT; the disease is atherosclerosis.
