Characterisation of the lipoprotein structure in the St. Thomas' Mixed Hyperlipidaemic (SMHL) rabbit

Extrapolating these findings to the human condition, an assessment of particle core composition, together with the proportion of sphingomyelin in phospholipids especially in VLDL might help in the differentiation of the combined hyperlipidaemia of FCHL into disorders of lipoprotein overproduction versus decreased clearance.
