Data in parentheses were determined by directly quantifying FA levels using targeted LC/MS method with internal FA standard. TAGs, triacylglycerols; DAGs, diacylglycerols; LPCs, lysophosphatidic acid; CEs, cholesterol esters; SM, sphingomyelin; FFAs, free fatty acids. Data represent the mass ion intensity ratios performed in triplicate for each experimental condition.

*p<.05 for HL∶VLDL compared to GFP∶VLDL.
