Partial ileal bypass reduces the production rate of low density lipoproteins in Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic rabbits.

Partial ileal bypass surgery in homozygous Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic (WHHL) rabbits resulted in a decrease of low density lipoproteins (LDL)-cholesterol from 14.2 +/- 2.4 to 7.0 +/- 1.2 mmol/l. To investigate the effect of partial ileal bypass on receptor-mediated and receptor-independent LD...
