Abstract

Resumen

High postprandial concentrrations of chylomicrons and its remnants are correlated with an atherosclerosis progression. Apolipoprotein B-48 is an essential component of these lipoproteins and appears to be a suitable marker for clinical studies of postprandial lipid metabolism and its relationship to cardiovascular risk.
