  1. Data are means ± SD. FCR 14C-CE, fractional clearance rate of 14C-cholesteryl ester. FCR 3H-CL, fractional clearance rate of 3H-free cholesterol. k1,0, constant that represents removal of lipid to the extravascular space. k1,2, constant that represents injected lipid which was converted into intravascular compartment. k2,0, constant that represents materials of intravascular compartment which is transferred to the extravascular space.
