Highlights

  • Background:-Apolipoproteins B and A-1 form major component of lipoproteins which are known to be involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis

  • Apo B number indicates the total number of atherogenic particle.ApoA-1 is the major apolipoprotein involved in the transport of lipid from peripheral tissue to the liver as it forms major component of High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) particle and reflects the anti-atherogenic potential in HDL particles[12,13]

  • Study population was selected on the basis of angiography; 50 subjects with atherosclerosis as proven by angiography were included as case and 50 subjects without atherosclerosis as proven by angiography were included as control group
