Abstract:Triglyceride (TG) enrichment of high density lipoprotein (HDL), which occurs in hypertriglyceridemic states, significantly enhances the rate at which HDL apolipoprotein (apo)A-I is cleared from the circulation of healthy humans. In the New Zealand White (NZW) rabbit, a species naturally deficient in hepatic lipase (HL), TG enrichment of HDL requires prior lipolytic modification to enhance apoA-I clearance. However, the effect of TG enrichment of HDL on the subsequent clearance of HDL cholesteryl ester (CE) has… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
