Studies on the regulation of plasma cholesterol levels in squirrel monkeys of two genotypes

Studies on the regulation of plasma cholesterol levels in squirrel monkeys of two genotypes

Certain individual squirrel monkeys (“hyporesponders”) are able to remain normocholesterolemic when fed diets containing cholesterol (0.5 mg/kcal). Other squirrel monkeys (“hyperresponders”) when fed the same diet become hypercholesterolemic. The purpose of these studies was to identify the mechanis...
