Abstract excerpt
The metabolic and genetic determinants of HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and HDL turnover were studied in 36 normolipidemic female subjects on a whole-food low-fat metabolic diet. Lipid, lipoprotein, and apolipoprotein levels, lipoprotein size, and apolipoprotein turnover parameters were determined, as were genetic variation at one site in the hepatic lipase promoter and six sites in the apolipoprotein...
