In vivo regulation of apolipoprotein A-I gene expression by estradiol and testosterone occurs by different mechanisms in inbred strains of mice.
We tested the hypothesis that testosterone and estrogen modulate apoA-I gene expression and metabolism by different mechanisms that may be influenced by genetic factors. Male and female C3H/HeJ (atherosclerosis-resistant) and C57BL/6J (atherosclerosis-susceptible) mice (n = 5/group) were castrated (...
