Lipoprotein Lipase Metabolism in Experimentally Nephrotic Rats.

Abstract
Heparin-activated lipolytic mechanisms were studied in vitro in rats with nephrosis experimentally induced by injection of antikidney serum. The nephrotic rat was found normally capable of releasing lipoprotein lipase following heparin administration. The nephrotic rat''s plasma also was found normally capable of supporting lipoprotein lipase-induced hydrolysis of a triglyceride substrate.
