Figure 5. Type 1 diabetes is associated with increased cholesterol absorption but not increased cholesterol synthesis.

Figure 5.

(A-C) Plasma from individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and non-diabetic controls was taken after an overnight fast and subjected to LC-MS/MS analysis for measurement of cholesterol absorption (campesterol, β-sitosterol) and synthesis (lathosterol) markers (n=43 control and 33 T1D individuals). Error bars represent SEM; *p<0.05; adjusted for age. A.U., arbitrary units.
