Abstract excerpt
RATIONALE: Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) X447 homozygotes are characterized by enhanced conversion of TRL apoB100. Here, we set out to investigate whether this LPL variant is also associated with enhanced apoB48 clearance. Therefore, we evaluated apoB48 kinetics in X447 homozygotes in the fed state by...
