Intestine-specific DGAT1 deficiency improves atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E knockout mice by reducing systemic cholesterol burden

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1) is the rate-limiting enzyme catalyzing the final step of triglyceride synthesis by esterifying a diglyceride with a fatty acid. We have previously shown that apolipoprotein E-knockout (ApoE (−/−)) mice lacking Dgat1 have reduced...
