Abstract
Primary hyperlipemias show different patterns of response to statins: in PH LDL reduction appears completely “synthesis inhibition” dependent, while in FCH LDL decrease appears to be synthesis dependent, partially limited by absorption increase. Studying cholesterol metabolism before and after hypolipemic therapy might be useful in identifying the best tailored treatment.
