Differential impact of hepatic deficiency and total body inhibition of MTP on cholesterol metabolism and RCT in mice[S]

Because apoB-containing lipoproteins are pro-atherogenic and their secretion by liver and intestine largely depends on microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) activity, MTP inhibition strategies are actively pursued. How decreasing the secretion of apoB-containing lipoproteins affects intrace...
