Diffusion at the Earth magnetopause: enhancement by Kelvin-Helmholtz instability [PDF]
Using hybrid simulations, we examine how particles can diffuse across the Earth's magnetopause because of finite Larmor radius effects. We focus on tangential discontinuities and consider a reversal of the magnetic field that closely models the ...

Demeter high resolution observations of the ionospheric thermal plasma response to magnetospheric energy input during the magnetic storm of November 2004 [PDF]
High resolution Demeter plasma and wave observations were available during one of the geomagnetic storms of November 2004 when the ionospheric footprint of the plasmasphere was pushed below 64 degrees in the midnight sector.

Biochemical characterization of cholesteryl ester transfer protein inhibitors
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) has been identified as a novel target for increasing HDL cholesterol levels. In this report, we describe the biochemical characterization of anacetrapib, a potent inhibitor of CETP.

HEK293 cells were transiently transfected with the WT-CETP plasmid or the indicated mutant CETP plasmids (solid bars). The amounts of WT or mutant CETP mRNA were determined by qPCR. The hatched bars represent controls.

Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein (cetp) Expression Does Not Affect Glucose Homeostasis And Insulin Secretion: Studies In Human Cetp Transgenic Mice. [PDF]
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is a plasma protein that mediates the exchange of triglycerides for esterified cholesterol between HDL and apoB-lipoproteins.

Dalcetrapib restoring belief in modulating CETP as a beneficial mechanism in cardiovascular disease [PDF]
\ud Background: As low HDL cholesterol levels are a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, raising HDL cholesterol substantially by inhibiting or modulating cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) may be useful in coronary artery disease.

Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) catalyzes the transfer of neutral lipids among plasma lipoproteins and in this way plays a prominent role in cholesterol metabolic routing and, thus, probably for atherosclerosis.
