Persistent abnormalities in lipoprotein composition and cholesteryl ester transfer following lovastatin treatment.
Optimally effective lipid-lowering agents should not only restore plasma lipids to normal levels but also correct potentially atherogenic alterations in lipoprotein composition and function often present in hyperlipidemic patients. Lovastatin, a competitive inhibitor of cholesterol biosynthesis, cle...
