摘要
Black-white differences in serum triglycerides and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol concentrations are known. However, the metabolic basis for these differences is not clear. This study determined the magnitude of postprandial triglyceride concentrations, lipoprotein lipase and hepatic triglyceride lipase activities in postheparin plasma, and serum lipid and lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations in healthy young adult black men (n = 22) and white men (n = 28). Postprandial triglyceride concentrations were measured at 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8 hours after a standardized test meal. Serum lipid and lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations were similar between the races in this study sample. However, incremental (above basal) increases in triglycerides were significantly greater in white men versus black men at 2 hours (P = .01) and tended to be greater at 3 hours (P = .12) and 4 hours (P = .016) after the fat load. In a multivariate analysis that included age, race, apolipoprotein E (apoE) genotype, fasting triglycerides, obesity measures, alcohol intake, and cigarette use, fasting triglycerides (P = .04) and, to a lesser extent, race (P = .07) were associated independently with the 2-hour incremental increase in triglycerides. The incremental triglyceride response correlated inversely with HDL cholesterol in both whites (r = -.38, P = .04) and blacks (r = -.59, P = .004). Lipoprotein lipase activity was higher (P = .049) and hepatic triglyceride lipase activity lower (P = .0001) in black men compared with white men; racial differences persisted after adjusting for the covariates. While lipoprotein lipase activity tended to associate inversely with the postprandial triglyceride concentration in both races, hepatic triglyceride lipase activity tended to correlate positively in whites and inversely in blacks. These results suggest that compared with whites, blacks may have an efficient lipid-clearing mechanism that could explain the black-white differences in lipoproteins found in the population at large.
