Progestagens, anabolic-androgenic compounds, estrogens: Effects on triglycerides and postheraprin lipolytic enzymes

  • Published:
Lipids

This review will center on recent advances in the understanding of the mode of action of these compounds, both in normals and in patients with hyperlipoproteinemia.
