“…The CCK concentrations in these mice were elevated ϳ30% at 30 min after injection of 50 ng/kg [Thr 28 ,Nle 31 ]CCK and returned to the basal level 2 h after injection (7). We also observed that the plasma cholesterol levels in CCK-treated wild-type and LDLR Ϫ/Ϫ mice were ϳ13 and 31% higher, respectively, than their vehicle-treated controls (7). Similarly, data from this report show that the plasma cholesterol level was elevated by ϳ21 and 37% in wild-type and LDLR Ϫ/Ϫ mice, respectively, after an intravenous injection of 50 ng/kg [Thr 28 ,Nle 31 ]CCK (Fig.…”
