Disorders of Lipid Metabolism and its Correction in Chronic Kidney Disease
Journal Title: Нирки - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 16
Abstract
Chronic kidney disease — a proven risk factor of the development and progression of lipid metabolism disorders. The basis of these disorders — an increase in blood plasma cholesterol, triglycerides, low density lipoproteins and decreased levels of high density lipoproteins, apo AI and apo AII. There has been a decrease in the activity of enzymes: lipoprotein lipase, hepatic triglyceride lipase, lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase. The use of lipid-modifying drugs — statins, fibrates, nicotinic acid was proposed.
