Effects of SCP-2/SCP-x gene ablation and cholesterol-rich diet on serum cholesterol and triacylglycerol composition. Serum levels (mg lipid/dl serum) of total cholesterol (A), free cholesterol (B), cholesteryl ester (C), and triacylglycerol (D) from DKO and WT mice were quantified as described in experimental materials. Solid bars: WT mice; open bars: DKO mice. Values are means ± SE (n = 6–7). *P < 0.05 for DKO vs. WT. #P < 0.05 CH vs. CO.
