Association between Higher Circulating Leucine-Rich α-2 Glycoprotein 1 Concentrations and Specific Plasma Ceramides in Postmenopausal Women with Type 2 Diabetes.

The results of our pilot exploratory study suggest that higher plasma LRG1 concentration was associated with higher levels of specific high-risk plasma ceramide molecules in elderly postmenopausal women with metabolically well-controlled T2DM, even after adjusting for known cardiovascular risk factors and other potential confounding variables.
