APOLIPOPROTEIN - A1 (APO-A1)
What does APOLIPOPROTEIN - A1 (APO-A1) measure?
The Apolipoprotein A1 (Apo-A1) test measures the level of Apo-A1, a major protein component of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles in the blood. Apo-A1 helps transport cholesterol from tissues to the liver for processing. This test may be used alongside lipid tests to assess cholesterol transport and support evaluation of cardiovascular risk. Results are interpreted with other laboratory findings and clinical information.
