We have investigated the effect of standard doses of two fibrates, gemfibrozil and fenofibrate, on fasting and postprandial remnant-like particles (RLP) in subjects with combined hyperlipidemia. Forty-eight subjects participated; of these, 14 underwent a Vitamin A-fat loading test before and after 6 months of treatment with gemfibrozil (n = 8) and fenofibrate (n = 6). Blood was drawn every 2h for 12h after the test meal.

It has been proposed that remnants of chylomicrons and very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) are atherogenic. We have used an immunochemical method to isolate remnant-like particles (RLP) and measured them in terms of their cholesterol and triglycerides (TG). RLP consist of apoB-48-containing triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and remnant-like VLDL containing apoB-100.
