Abnormal cholesterol–cholesteryl ester metabolism impairs mouse oocyte quality during ovarian aging [PDF]
Cellular & Molecular Biology LettersBackground Ovarian aging-induced decline in oocyte quality has been a main issue in women of advanced maternal age. However, the potential mechanism remains elusive, and there are no effective strategies to ameliorate aged oocyte quality.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1987 The surface behavior of a series of cholesteryl esters was studied in mixtures with a model phospholipid, 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl phosphatidylcholine. The cholesteryl esters were representative of the predominant forms occurring naturally and qualitative ...

Plasma cholesteryl ester fatty acids do not mediate the association of ethnicity with type 2 diabetes: results from the HELIUS study [PDF]
, 2017 Scope: Ethnic minority groups have a higher risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D) than the host population. Our aim was to identify whether plasma cholesteryl ester fatty acids (CEFA) mediate the ethnic differences in type 2 diabetes. Methods and results:

Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein Penetrates Lipoproteins For Cholesteryl Ester Transfer [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2010 Human cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP), a hydrophobic glycoprotein (476 amino acids, ∼74 kDa), mediates the transfer of cholesteryl ester (CE) from high-density lipoproteins (HDL) to apo-B containing lipoproteins (low-density lipoproteins - LDL; very low density lipoproteins - VLDL).

Oxidized cholesteryl esters and inflammation [PDF]
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2017 The oxidation hypothesis of atherosclerosis proposes that oxidized LDL is a major causative factor in the development of atherosclerosis. Although this hypothesis has received strong mechanistic support and many animal studies demonstrated profound atheroprotective effects of antioxidants, which reduce LDL oxidation, the results of human clinical ...

Roles of reconstituted high-density lipoprotein nanoparticles in cardiovascular disease: A new paradigm for drug discovery [PDF]
, 2020 Epidemiological results revealed that there is an inverse correlation between high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels and risks of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD).

Journal of Lipid Research, 1998 The concentration dependence and tissue distribution of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesteryl ester and apolipoprotein (apo) transport were determined in apoA-I knockout mice (apoA-I-/-) that lack normal HDL in plasma. Rates of HDL cholesteryl ester

Inhibition of pancreatic cholesterol esterase reduces cholesterol absorption in the hamster [PDF]
, 2004 BACKGROUND: Pancreatic cholesterol esterase has three proposed functions in the intestine: 1) to control the bioavailability of cholesterol from dietary cholesterol esters; 2) to contribute to incorporation of cholesterol into mixed micelles; and 3) to ...

Inhibitors of neutral cholesteryl ester hydrolase.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1990 p-Nitrophenyl N-butyl, N-octyl, and N-dodecyl carbamates and a newly synthesized diethyl phosphate compound were studied as potential inhibitors of the cholesteryl ester hydrolases of Fu5AH rat hepatoma cells.
