homeostasis/metabolism
• decreased serum levels of APOB
• the rate of production of VLDL is reduced; however, clearance of LDL is similar to wild-type
• LDL is more susceptible to oxidation, has higher monocyte chemotaxis-inducing activity, and induces higher levels of lipid hydroperoxides in macrophages
• HDL is more inflammatory and less able to protect against LDL-induced monocyte chemotactic activity
• about 24% lower compared to wild-type mice after 15 weeks on a high fat, high cholesterol, cholate-containing diet
• VLDL/LDL is about 32% lower compared to wild-type mice after 15 weeks on a high fat, high cholesterol, cholate-containing diet
• VLDL/LDL is about 32% lower compared to wild-type mice after 15 weeks on a high fat, high cholesterol, cholate-containing diet
• on a high fat, high cholesterol, cholate-containing diet serum PON1 activity is about 26% lower than in wild-type mice

cardiovascular system
• despite lower VLDL/LDL levels, atheromatous lesions in the aorta are significantly larger, after 15 weeks on a high fat, high cholesterol, cholate-containing diet, compared to wild-type mice

cellular
• significantly more macrophages are found in the aorta wall
• signs of oxidative stress are increased in the liver and peritoneal macrophages

immune system
• enhanced pro-inflammatory activity compared to wild-type cells
• significantly more macrophages are found in the aorta wall
• treatment with LPS induces an exacerbated inflammatory response with higher levels of inflammatory cytokines (TNFA and IL-1B)

hematopoietic system
• enhanced pro-inflammatory activity compared to wild-type cells
• significantly more macrophages are found in the aorta wall
