Impaired plasma cholesteryl ester transfer with accumulation of larger high density lipoproteins in some families of baboons (Papio sp.).

Baboons from some families have a higher concentration of plasma high density lipoproteins (HDL) on a chow diet and accumulate large HDL (HDL1) when challenged with a high cholesterol and high saturated fat (HCHF) diet. HDL1 from high HDL1 animals contained more (1.5-fold) cholesteryl ester than HDL...
