Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: In order to determine the influence of the lipid status on the ability of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) to modify the plasma lipoprotein profile, the effect of hypercholesterolemia versus hypertriglyceridemia were compared in wild-type and CETP-transgenic (CETPTg) rats expressing CETP at a constant level. METHODS AND RESULTS: Wild-type and CETPTg rats were fed either a chow diet, a high...
