Abstract excerpt
We fed 634 baboons three diets to assess the separate effects of increasing dietary fat and cholesterol intakes on three independent measures of HDL phenotype: concentrations of HDL cholesterol and apoAI, and size distributions of HDL cholesterol. Increasing dietary fat significantly increased concentrations of HDL cholesterol and apoAI (both, P<0.0001), but did not affect HDL particle sizes, whereas increasing...
