Table 1.
Bodyweight (BW), liver actual and relative weight, total liver triglyceride (TG) (Mean ± SEM, n=13 -17/group), plasma cholesterol (TPC), very-low + intermediate-density lipoprotein cholesterol (V+IDLC), low- and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC and HDLC) and triglycerides (TG) concentrations and LDL molecular weight (LDL mol.wt.) in control and CEE-treated OVX monkeys (Mean ± SEM, n=17/group). Conversion to mmol/L cholesterol and TG by multiplying by 0.0259 and 0.0113, respectively
