Apolipoprotein A-1 is found to be as an indicator for cardiovascular disease and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Since APOA1 is a component of HDL associated with good form of cholesterol, when ABOAB (apolipoprotein B) a component of LDL, a form of bad cholesterol levels are elevated in blood can signal as a risk factor for development in hardening of arterial walls and blockage. <ref> Test ID: APOAB Apolipoprotein A1 and B, Serum.
