|
• following polyIC induction, plasma IDL and LDL levels are almost undetectable
|
• following polyIC induction, plasma VLDL levels are almost undetectable
|
• following polyIC induction, plasma triglyceride levels are reduced by 45%
|
• following polyIC induction, plasma apoB-100 levels are not detectable
• following polyIC induction, plasma apoB-48 levels are reduced by ~65%
|
• following polyIC induction, hepatic cholesterol levels are increased by 65%
|
• following polyIC induction, hepatic triglyceride levels are increased 2.5-fold
|
liver/biliary system
• following polyIC induction, mutant liver weights are increased while body weights remain normal
|
• following polyIC induction, hepatic cholesterol levels are increased by 65%
|
• following polyIC induction, hepatic triglyceride levels are increased 2.5-fold
|
• following polyIC induction, apoB-100 is nearly absent in hepatic microsomes while apoB-48 remains unaffected
• following polyIC induction, no changes are observed in the levels of microsomal luminal chaparone proteins or cytosolic heat shock proteins
• following polyIC induction, hepatic secretion of apoB-100 is blocked without causing apoB to accumulate in the hepatic ER
