BackgroundApolipoprotein C-III (apoC-III) is a regulator of triglyceride (TG) metabolism, and due to its association with risk of cardiovascular disease, is an emergent target for pharmacological intervention. The impact of substantially lowering apoC-III on lipoprotein metabolism is not clear.MethodsWe investigated the kinetics of apolipoproteins B48 and B100 (apoB48 and apoB100) in chylomicrons, VLDL1, VLDL2,...
