Intestine may be a major site of action for the apoA-I mimetic peptide 4F whether administered subcutaneously or orally[S]

To determine if the dose of peptide administered or the plasma level was more important, doses of 0.15, 0.45, 4.5, or 45 mg/kg/day of the peptide D-4F were administered orally or subcutaneously (SQ) to apoliptotein (apo)E null mice.
