ABSTRACT: Background
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have dysfunctional high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles as compared with the general population. Understanding the lipid composition of HDL may provide mechanistic insight. We tested associations of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albuminuria with relative HDL abundance of ceramides, sphingomyelins, and phosphatidylcholines in participants with CKD.Methods
We studied 490 participants with CKD from the Seattle Kidney Study. HDL was isolated from plasma; targeted lipidomics was used to quantify the relative abundance of ceramides, sphingomyelins, and phosphatidylcholines per 10 µg of total HDL protein. We evaluated the associations of eGFR and albuminuria with levels of individual lipids and lipid class
