Fatty acids differentially regulate hepatic cholesteryl ester formation and incorporation into lipoproteins in the liver of the mouse

These experiments tested the hypothesis that fatty acids (FAs) that drive cholesterol esterification also enhance sterol secretion and were undertaken using a mouse model where lipoprotein-cholesterol output by the liver could be assessed in vivo. The turnover of sterol in the animals was kept const...
