Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: We examined the influence of genetic variation of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter G8 on apolipoprotein B (apoB) kinetics in overweight/obese men. METHODS AND RESULTS: Very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) apoB kinetics were determined in 47 men (body mass index 32+/-3 kg/m2) using stable isotope and multicompartmental modeling to estimate production rate (PR),...
