Measuring VLDL1 secretion in humans with an intravenous fat emulsion test

Summary: Tracer techniques to assess very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) secretion in humans are expensive, are time consuming, and require mathematical models to estimate VLDL kinetics. Here, we describe an alternative, time- and cost-efficient protocol to directly determine VLDL1 secretion with an...
