I WANT A PICTURE OF A VLDL >:-( —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.249.30.23 (talk) 22:26, 12 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Indian hedgehog?

This is probably the most ludicrously obscure example I have ever seen, and I am incredibly ambiguous about it. Initially it seems like a much better idea to use a more common example, but what actually happened with me is I followed the link and learned some cool factoids about a peptide hormone that I had never heard of before, which is a good thing. It seems like a dumb idea, but then it seems like a great idea! I'm just wondering what others think of an example like this? Dcs002 (talk) 18:10, 4 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The article states "It is assembled in the liver from cholesterol and apolipoproteins." The composition measured by Schonfield et al. (J Clin Invest, 1979, vol 64 pages 1288-1297) measured the contents of VLDL as 78% triglyceride, 4.7% cholesterol, 9.5% phospholipid and 7.6% protein (ApoB-100). Surely at nearly 80%, the triglyceride composition should not have been ignored?--198.28.92.5 11:48, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
