Cardiovascular — Lipid Particle

ApoB (Apolipoprotein B)

ApoB counts the number of atherogenic lipoprotein particles in circulation.

Reference range

Reference ranges vary by lab, age and sex. Your own lab report carries the authoritative range, and your clinician reads it with you.

Why it matters

ApoB is the single best blood marker for atherogenic lipoprotein burden — better than LDL-C in head-to-head studies, because every atherogenic particle (LDL, VLDL, IDL, Lp(a)) carries exactly one ApoB. A REVRCEL longevity panel reads ApoB as the primary cardiovascular risk lever rather than relying on the standard lipid panel alone. Modifiable through diet, exercise, GLP-1 therapy, and — when warranted — lipid-lowering medication.

How REVRCEL clinicians read it

ApoB is interpreted against age, family history, and Lp(a). Lifestyle is the first lever; pharmacotherapy is layered when indicated.

Common questions

Why is ApoB better than LDL?

ApoB counts particles; LDL-C measures cholesterol content per particle. Particle count is the better predictor of cardiovascular events.

What ApoB level is optimal?

Lower is generally better in the longevity literature. Targets are individualized.
