The exact mechanism by which inflammation decreases HDL levels is not defined, but decreases in apoA-I production and lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) activity, as well as increased serum amyloid A (SAA), endothelial lipase and secretory phospholipase A2 activity (PLA2) could all contribute. In addition, during inflammation multiple changes in HDL structure occur, leading to alterations in HDL function which may be implicated in the CVD complications of SLE. Therefore, this review will aim to identify the mechanisms implicated in HDL dysfunction
