Official Title: A Validation Study Evaluating the Use of 3H-Cholesterol Bound to Albumin as a Method to Assess Reverse Cholesterol Transport in Subjects With Monogenic Diseases Affecting HDL Metabolism
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of radiolabeled particulate cholesterol administered intravenously in association with albumin, as a method to study reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) in people carrying mutations in genes known to affect high density lipoprotein (HDL) metabolism by analyzing changes in the tracer activity in total plasma, lipoproteins fractions and feces.
