title: [Specificity of the lipoproteins metabolism in rats].
abstract: The article reviews the data on rat lipoproteins metabolism and points to some principal differences from that in humans. Sixteen such differences are described concerning spectrum of lipoproteins, their quantity and chemical composition, characteristics of biosynthesis and catabolism, absence of the systems of lipid transport between some classes of lipoproteins.
