Through these receptors apoE mediates the uptake of chylomicron remnants into the liver and the uptake of circulating very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) and intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL) particles into peripheral tissues and cells (Mahley and Rall 2000).enENFERMEDADES CARDIOVASCULARESEPIDEMIOLOGIADIETAArticle
