A Shift in ApoM/S1P between HDL-Particles in Women with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus Is Associated with Impaired Anti-Inflammatory Effects of the ApoM/S1P Complex
Objective-Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) patients have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease despite high levels of high-density lipoproteins (HDL). Apolipoprotein M (apoM) and its ligand sphingosine 1-phospate (S1P) exert many of the anti-inflammatory effects of HDL. We investigated whether apoM and S1P are altered in T1D and whether apoM and S1P are important for HDL functionality in T1D.
