Serum activity and hepatic secretion of lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase in experimental hypothyroidism and hypercholesterolemia
Lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT), the major cholesterol esterifying enzyme in plasma, plays an important role in the removal of cholesterol from peripheral tissues. This study in rat focuses upon the effects of hypothyroidism and cholesterol feeding on serum activity and hepatic LCAT secr...
