N normal phenotype
homeostasis/metabolism
• in the fed state, triglyceride levels are reduced by 70% in the males but not females
• in the fasted state, triglyceride levels are reduced by 90% in males and 65% in the females
• plasma cholesterol is decreased in males but not females, in either the fed or fasted state
• postheparin plasma lipoprotein lipase activity is increased 2-fold under fed conditions and is increased 3-fold and 3.5-fold in females and males, respectively, under fasted conditions
