Abstract excerpt
We examined the effect of genetic polymorphisms of proteins regulating intrahepatic processing of apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB) and the supply of neutral lipids to the liver on the hepatic secretion of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) apoB in obesity. Hepatic secretion of very low density apolipoprotein B-100 (VLDL apoB) was measured using an infusion of [1-(13)C]leucine in 29 obese men. Isotopic enrichment and...
