To evaluate factors regulating the concentrations of plasma low density lipoproteins (LDL), apolipoprotein B metabolism was studied in nine Pima Indians (25 +/- 2 yr, 191 +/- 20% ideal wt) with low LDL cholesterol (77 +/- 7 mg/dl) and apoB (60 +/- 4 mg/dl) and in eight age- and weight-matched Caucas...
