Effect of dietary cholesterol and alloxan-diabetes on tissue cholesterol and apolipoprotein E mRNA levels in the rabbit
Alloxan-diabetic rabbits develop hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia in response to cholesterol feeding. To determine whether alterations in apolipoprotein composition of plasma lipoproteins were due to changes in apolipoprotein gene expression, we measured the steady state apoE mRNA level...
