Increased hepatic VLDL secretion, lipogenesis, and SREBP-1 expression in the corpulent JCR:LA-cp rat

The corpulent JCR:LA-cp rat (cp/cp) is a useful model for study of the metabolic consequences of obesity and hyperinsulinemia. To assess the effect of hyperinsulinemia on VLDL secretion in this model, we measured rates of secretion of VLDL in perfused livers derived from cp/cp rats and their lean li...
