ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate pathogenesis of liprd metabolism disorder in children with nephrotic syndrome. Methods Serum lipid and plasma llpoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase were detected in 62 nephrotic syndrome children and 30 normal children, respectively. Results The activity of lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase was lower than that in normal control group, while serum cholesterol, triglycerides and low -density lipoprotein in nephrotic group were higher than those in control group. Lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase were negative correlation with triglycerides and low - density lipoprotein, respectively. Conclusions Reduced activity of lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase is one of causes leading to hypertriglyceridemia in nephrotic syndrome.
