Phylloquinone in plasma from elderly and young adults: factors influencing its concentration
J A Sadowski et al. Am J Clin Nutr. 1989 Jul.
Abstract
Fasting plasma phylloquinone concentrations were determined by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography in a population of young (n = 131) and elderly (n = 195) human subjects. The distribution of values was non-Gaussian but was converted to Gaussian form after a logarithmic transformation of the data. The normal range derived from the lognormal distribution was 0.29-2.64 nmol/L (geometric means = 0.87 nmol/L, median = 0.86 nmol/L). Young females had significantly decreased plasma phylloquinone concentrations when compared with the elderly females whereas concentrations in young males were slightly higher than those in elderly males. A regression model was constructed and revealed that plasma phylloquinone concentrations were positively correlated with plasma triglycerides and alpha-tocopherol. Although the elderly subjects (means = 1.05 nmol/L) had higher levels of phylloquinone than the young subjects (0.94 nmol/L), when the concentration of phylloquinone in plasma is expressed as nanomoles phylloquinone per millimole of triglyceride, the elderly subjects (0.62 x 10(-6) showed decreased levels for phylloquinone compared with the young subjects (0.82 x 10(-6) (p less than 0.001).
