Decreased PLTP mass but elevated PLTP activity linked to insulin resistance in HTG

Decreased PLTP mass but elevated PLTP activity linked to insulin resistance in HTG

Hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) is associated with insulin resistance, increased cholesteryl ester transfer (CET), and low HDL cholesterol. Phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) may be involved in these relationships. Associations between CET, lipids, insulin resistance, CETP and PLTP activities, and PLTP...
