Abstract
Objectives: Zebrafish ( Danio rerio) has been established as a brilliant model to study dyslipidemia or atherosclerosis due to the remarkable similarities with humans in lipid and lipoprotein metabolism. In contrast to mice, zebrafish show lipoprotein oxidation and dyslipidemia after feeding with a high cholesterol diet for as short as 15 day’s time period, even without any genetic intervention.
