Popis: Tribbles1 (TRIB1) was recently identified in genome-wide association studies as being associated with plasma levels of VLDL, HDL, LDL, and TG as well as coronary artery disease in humans. Here we report studies in a Trib1 liver-specific knockout mouse (Trib1_LSKO) created via AAV-mediated delivery of Cre recombinase into mice with a floxed allele of Trib1. Four weeks after infection, Trib1_LSKO mice exhibit a 25% increase in liver weight (p
