Serum Con A-bound ApoA4 levels were higher in the DM group than in HCs, and further increased in the DN group. Levels of ApoA4 were positively correlated with blood urea nitrogen and creatine, but negatively correlated with serum protein and albumin. This evidence supports serum Con A-bound ApoA4 as a circulating marker for predicting the progression of renal impairment in DM patients.
