Production of apolipoprotein B-67 in apolipoprotein B-67/B-100 heterozygotes: technical problems associated with leucine contamination in stable isotope studies
In vivo kinetics of apoB were performed in three apoB-67/apoB-100 heterozygotes using a primed-constant infusion of (5,5,5-(2)H3)-leucine. Mean plasma VLDL and LDL apoB-67 concentrations were 0.05 +/- 0.01 mg/dl and 0.62 +/- 0.17 mg/dl, respectively, which were 0.2% and 2.8% of total plasma apoB con...
