Plasma decay and liver uptake of radiolabeled cholesterol from chylomicron-like emulsion particles in Abca1−/− and Sr-b1−/− mice. After tail vein injection of emulsion particles containing [3H]CO into Abca1−/− (left panel; open squares) and Sr-b1−/− (right panel; open squares) mice and their WT littermates (solid squares)(n = 5), plasma samples were obtained at the indicated times and plasma decay was determined (A). 2.5 h after injection, the percentage of the injected dose of 3H-cholesterol present in the liver was determined (B). Values are means ± SD.
