The beginning of human apolipoprotein L1 study (gene: APOL1; protein: ApoL1) originated from the identification of circulating ApoL1 as an interacting protein of ApoA1 and a minor component of high-density lipoprotein subfraction 3 (HDL3) in 1997 [1]. In the past 18 years, ApoL1 has been investigated in the context of complex human diseases such as African sleeping sickness, schizophrenia, host innate immunity, cancer, hyperlipidemia, cardiovascular diseases, stroke and type 2 diabetes [2–10].
