HDL content and composition in acute phase response in three species: triglyceride enrichment of HDL a factor in its decrease

High density lipoprotein (HDL) levels decrease during the acute phase response (APR). We have used the APR model of rabbit, baboon, and mouse to study the factors that influence HDL level. In the baboons and rabbits there was massive hypertriglyceridemia, triglyceride enrichment of HDL (60-80% of co...
