Key result

Hepatic lipase inhibition in rats increases LDL apolipoprotein B-48 enrichment ~5-fold.

Population

Rats (fasting and fat-loaded models)

Comparison

Goat anti-rat hepatic lipase serum injection vs Control rats

Design

Preclinical

Follow-up

6 hours post-inhibition (for fat-loaded rats)

Overview

Hypothesis-generating in rats; leaves open hepatic lipase as a therapeutic target pending human validation.

Structured PICO

Population
Rats (fasting and fat-loaded) used to explore the in vivo function of hepatic lipase.

Main Result

Absolute Event Rate: 62% vs 12%

In vivo inhibition of hepatic lipase in rats leads to enrichment of apolipoprotein B-48 in the LDL fraction, supporting its role as a phospholipase and in chylomicron catabolism.

Cite This Study

Daggy et al. (1986) studied this question. Goat anti-rat hepatic lipase serum vs. Control rats was evaluated on Apolipoprotein B-48 as a percentage of total apolipoprotein B in the LDL fraction. Inhibition of hepatic lipase in rats significantly enriched the LDL fraction with apolipoprotein B-48 (62% of total apolipoprotein B vs. 12% in controls).
