Adipose tissue and skeletal muscle lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase activities in cholesterol-fed guinea pigs.
In control and in cholesterol-fed (1%) guinea pigs, the lipoprotein lipase activities of adipose tissue and skeletal muscle and the hepatic lipase activity were assayed after elution of the enzymes from tissues by heparin. The lipoprotein lipase activities were similar in the two groups of animals; the hepatic lipase activity was found be significantly increased in the animals fed cholesterol.
