Apolipoprotein D is a member of the Apolipoprotein family. Unlike other lipoproteins, which are mainly produced in the liver, apolipoprotein D is mainly produced in the brain and testes. It was found to be a putative biomarker of androgen receptor function in androgen insensitivity syndrome, the most common cause of disorders of sex development. Apolipoprotein D is associated with neurological disorders and nerve injury, especially related to myelin sheath. It was shown to be elevated in a rat model of stroke, and is elevated in patients with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and Alzheimer′s disease.
