Hepatic lipase overexpression lowers remnant and LDL levels by a noncatalytic mechanism in LDL receptor-deficient mice

To address the role of the noncatalytic ligand function of hepatic lipase (HL) in low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor-mediated lipoprotein metabolism, we characterized transgenic mice lacking the LDL receptor (LDLR) that express either catalytically active (Ldlr−/−HL) or inactive (Ldlr−/−HLS145G)...
