[The effect of hyperlipoproteinemia on serum fructosamine]
1Universitätsklinik für Innere Medizin, Innsbruck.
Abstract:
In 127 patients, we investigated the influence of hyperlipemia on observed fructosamine values. An in vitro influence of the lipids on the fructosamine reading could be excluded for cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol and triglycerides. However, in patients with type I diabetes, both, cholesterol and triglycerides significantly (p less than 0.05) correlated with fructosamine. This may be explained by in vivo effects of hyperglycemia on lipids or lipoproteins. For a given level of hyperglycemia, fructosamine is slightly more sensitive than HbA1c.

Glucose Transporters
Facilitated diffusion-glucose transporters (GLUTs) are encoded by the solute-linked carrier (SLC) family 2, subfamily A gene family, or SLC2A. The 14 GLUT protein members are distributed into three classes:

Serum lipids are fats and fatty substances in the blood and are crucial for various bodily functions, including energy storage, cellular structure, and hormone production. Serum lipids consist of cholesterol, triglycerides, and phospholipids.
Cholesterol is a soft, fat-like substance found in all body cells. It is crucial for producing hormones, vitamin D, and substances that aid...
