Apoprotein-AI concentrations were measured in whole blood in 13 male mountaineers before, during and after a strenuous climb of 8 weeks' duration. The AI concentration almost doubled in 3 weeks and remained elevated at that level for the full period of the climb. This study demonstrates the rapid rate at which high density lipoproteins can rise and the very high levels (148 +/- 29 mg/dl in whole blood) that can be reached. The rise can be attributed at least in part to exercise though other factors such as exposure to cold, hypoxia and mental stress might also have contributed.
在13名男性登山运动员进行为期8周的艰苦攀登之前、期间和之后，测量了他们全血中的载脂蛋白A-I浓度。载脂蛋白A-I浓度在3周内几乎翻倍，并在整个攀登期间一直维持在该升高水平。这项研究证明了高密度脂蛋白能够快速升高，并且能够达到非常高的水平（全血中为148±29毫克/分升）。这种升高至少部分归因于运动，不过其他因素，如暴露于寒冷、缺氧和精神压力等，可能也起到了一定作用。
