The bridging function of hepatic lipase clears plasma cholesterol in LDL receptor-deficient “apoB-48-only” and “apoB-100-only” mice
Hepatic lipase clears plasma cholesterol by lipolytic and nonlipolytic processing of lipoproteins. We hypothesized that the nonlipolytic processing (known as the bridging function) clears cholesterol by removing apoB-48- and apoB-100-containing lipoproteins by whole particle uptake. To test our hypo...
