Metabolic basis of primary hypercholesterolemia.

Circulation - 1 Jul 1991

Vega G L, Denke M A, Grundy S M

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Hypercholesterolemia is a well-established risk factor for coronary heart disease. However, the mechanisms underlying hypercholesterolemia, elevated low density lipoprotein (LDL) in particular, are not well understood. To determine these mechanisms, we studied LDL kinetics in a group of men with primary hypercholesterolemia. METHODS AND RESULTS: LDL kinetics in 134 middle-aged men with high-risk...
