Adipose tissue-specific CETP expression in mice: impact on plasma lipoprotein metabolism

Adipose tissue-specific CETP expression in mice: impact on plasma lipoprotein metabolism

Adipose tissue appears to be a highly conserved site of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) expression across species. To investigate the impact of adipose CETP expression on lipid metabolism, we created adipose tissue-specific CETP transgenic (CETPTg) mice. CETP mRNA is predominantly expresse...
