Serum lipid and apolipoprotein concentrations were measured in 37 male survivors of cerebral infarction (CI) and in 30 healthy controls. Both groups had similar total cholesterol levels, but the HDL-cholesterol level was significantly lower and the serum triglyceride level was significantly higher in the CI patients than in the controls. The ApoB level was significantly higher in the CI patients but there was no significant difference between the 2 groups in the levels of the other apolipoproteins (ApoA-I, A-II, C-II, C-III, and E). The HDL-cholesterol/ApoA-I ratio was significantly lower in the CI patients. Both the VLDL-triglyceride and VLDL-cholesterol levels were higher in the CI patients but the VLDL-cholesterol especially its cholesterol ester level was conspicuously high. A population of VLDL particles that bound to heparin on heparin-Sepharose columns was increased in the CI patients. We suggest that cholesterol ester is excessively transferred from HDL to VLDL during the disturbed catabolism of VLDL in CI patients.
