    What is Apolipoprotein A1 (Apo-A1) Test?

    The Apolipoprotein A1 (Apo A1) test assesses the concentration of a specific protein in the blood that aids in cholesterol transport. Apolipoproteins help form lipoproteins, which carry cholesterol throughout the body. Apo A1 is a major component of HDL cholesterol, known as "good cholesterol," which plays a protective role by clearing excess cholesterol from the blood and preventing arterial plaque buildup.

    Low Apo A1 levels may indicate a reduction in HDL particles, increasing the likelihood of heart disease or circulation-related problems. This test is often suggested for individuals with elevated cholesterol, a family predisposition to heart disease, or hyperlipidaemia. It also helps evaluate how well cholesterol-lowering treatments or lifestyle interventions are working.

    Conditions such as diabetes, kidney disease, smoking, and certain medications can lead to low Apo A1 levels, while elevated levels are usually associated with beneficial factors like physical activity, weight loss, or pregnancy. Though not a standard test, the Apo A1 test provides supplementary data on cardiovascular health and is used alongside routine cholesterol tests when necessary.

    Apolipoprotein A1 (Apo-A1) Test Parameters

    The Apo A1 test evaluates the concentration of Apo A1 in the bloodstream. Apo A1 is a key protein in high-density lipoprotein (HDL), making up about 65% of its composition. It plays a vital role in HDL formation and aids lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT), an enzyme responsible for modifying cholesterol into a removable form. HDL functions by transporting surplus cholesterol from various tissues to the liver for breakdown and elimination. Insufficient Apo A1 levels can disrupt this process, potentially leading to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and vascular complications. People with atherosclerosis often show lower Apo A1 levels. Although genetics influence Apo A1 levels, not all genetic variations result in heart problems. To assess heart health, doctors commonly measure both Apo A1 and Apolipoprotein B (Apo B). The balance between these proteins provides a more comprehensive evaluation of cardiovascular risk compared to standard cholesterol testing.

    Cautions Before Taking Apolipoprotein A1 Test

    No specific precautions are required before taking the test.

    Why Take the Apolipoprotein A1 (Apo-A1) Test?

    The Apolipoprotein A1 test may be recommended for:

    • Tracking cholesterol level changes in response to lifestyle modifications or medications

    • Individuals with hyperlipidaemia or persistently high cholesterol levels

    • Assessing cholesterol balance by measuring the Apo A1/Apo B ratio

    • Identifying inherited conditions associated with low HDL cholesterol

    • Individuals with a strong family history of heart disease or early heart attacks

    This test offers a more accurate and reliable cardiovascular risk assessment than routine HDL cholesterol tests, helping in an effective heart.

    Highest Rated Diagnostic Lab

    • Awesome experience.. very fast and smooth process. Quick response from Orange Health team. I needed to get my covid test done and called almost 10 diagnostic centers none of them responded since it was sunday although they have mentioned they were open but when i called them they said they would come on the next day. (Not to take any names) But Orange Health care team were very prompt. I just checked in their websites. Got a response call within a minute. The executive was very helpful, clear and he surely did know how to talk a patient or person in need , i did feel a sense of caring nature and he sorted it out quickly, arranged the sample collection in the next hour.. Even the lab technician (sample collector) was punctual and He took proper safety measures. And yes!! I got my reports within 4 hours ( i was hoping to get it on the next day) Awesome guys.. keep up the good work.. A Satisfied Patron. 😌

    • Good first experience availing the services. Easy to place a request for at home sample collection. In fact the collection was scheduled in no time, which I really appreciate because it was a RTPCR where time is of essence. The phlebotomist arrived on time despite a heavy rain. He was courteous and quite skilled. The report came on time too. The status updates were easily available. Customer care was prompt and helpful. Based on my first experience, I recommend Orange Health.
