Abstract excerpt
Whether the post-prandial lipemic response is linked to potentially pro-atherogenic and/or prothrombotic changes in plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI) and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) is uncertain. The aim of our study was to determine whether PAI-1 antigen and PAI activity were elevated during post-prandial lipemia following a standard fat tolerance test. We also investigated changes in...
