homeostasis/metabolism
• 8-week-old male mice fed a standard chow diet show a significant increase in plasma total cholesterol levels relative to wild-type controls
• however, hepatic concentration of cholesterol and liver mRNA expression of cholesterol genes (Srebp2, Hmgcs1, Hmgcr, and Fdft1) are relatively normal
• male mice fed a standard chow diet show an increased plasma cholesterol concentration within LDL fractions
• however, the abundance of LDL particles is normal as measured by ApoB protein abundance
• male mice fed a standard chow diet show an increased plasma cholesterol concentration within VLDL fractions
• male mice fed a standard chow diet show a significant increase in plasma triglyceride levels relative to wild-type controls
• however, hepatic concentration of triglycerides is relatively normal
• male mice fed a standard chow diet show an increased plasma triglyceride concentration within VLDL fractions
• however, the abundance of VLDL particles is normal as measured by ApoB protein abundance
