Background. Hypopituitarism is associated with increased VLDL and LDL apoB concentrations, which may be attributable to GHD. Studies examining the effects of GHR on VLDL apoB kinetics have been conflicting, possibly due to differences in the duration of GHR. As yet, the effects of GHR on LDL apoB kinetics are unknown. Aim. To examine the effect of GHR on VLDL and LDL apoB kinetics, and to explore the hypothesis that these effects are dependent on the duration of therapy. Metho...
