Albuminuria, the HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein) Proteome, and Coronary Artery Calcification in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus.

Conclusions- Our observations indicate that the HDL proteome is remodeled in type 1 diabetes mellitus subjects with albuminuria. Moreover, low concentrations of the antiatherosclerotic protein PON1 in HDL associated with both albuminuria and coronary artery calcification, raising the possibility that alterations in HDL protein cargo mediate, in part, the known association of albuminuria with cardiovascular risk in type 1 diabetes mellitus (Graphic Abstract).
