CETP and diet modulate LPL-HDL correlations in mice; leaves open translation to human lipid metabolism.
Both genetic (CETP expression) and environmental (diet) factors modulate the association between LPL activity and HDL cholesterol in mice, explaining species differences in lipid metabolism.
Clee et al. (1997) studied this question.
