Cholesteryl esters in malignancy

Clinica Chimica Acta, 2005
Cholesteryl esters, formed by the esterification of cholesterol with long-chain fatty acids, on one hand, are the means by which cholesterol is transported through the blood by lipoproteins, on the other, the way cholesterol itself can be accumulated in the cells.

Polymorphism in Cholesteryl Esters: Cholesteryl Palmitate

IBM Journal of Research and Development, 1971
Abstract The thermal transitions in cholesteryl palmitate have been evaluated and compared to previously reported data. A sample synthesized from carefully purified cholesterol and palmitic acid using p-toluene sulfonic acid compared directly with previously reported data.

Physical properties of cholesteryl esters

Progress in Lipid Research, 1984
Cholesteryl esters, the intracellular storage form and intravascular transport form of cholesterol, can exist in crystal, liquid crystal and liquid states. The physical state of cholesteryl esters at physiologic temperatures may be a determinant of their pathogenicity. This review has surveyed saturated aliphatic cholesteryl esters of chain length 1 to

CHOLESTERYL ESTERS OF THE GLIOBLASTOMA*

Journal of Neurochemistry, 1968
Abstract The sterol ester fraction in the human glioblastoma was isolated and characterized. Cholesterol was identified as the constituent sterol. Contained in the complex mixture of fatty acids were members with 0‐4 double bonds and 14‐28 carbon atoms. About 1/4 of the acids were polyunsaturated.

Cholesteryl ester analogs inhibit cholesteryl ester but not triglyceride transfer catalyzed by the plasma cholesteryl ester‐triglyceride transfer protein

Lipids, 1990
AbstractA lipid transfer protein complex (LTC), purified from human plasma by immunoaffinity chromatography, catalyzed the interlipoprotein transfer of cholesteryl esters (CE) and triglycerides (TG). The CE transfer activity of LTC was governed by the strucutre of the CE. Incubation of LTC with long chain CE both activated and stabilized LTC.

Cholesteryl Ester Transfer in Atherosclerosis

1987
Reverse cholesterol (C) transport includes the various steps by which C that leaves cells, can be eliminated from the body by the liver. One of these step has been recently individualized in humans and has been called the plasma lipid transfer process. This step follows the uptake of cellular C by high density lipoproteins (HDL), particularly HDL3 and ...

Transesterification of cholesteryl esters

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, 1988
AbstractThe transesterification of cholesteryl stearate, oleate, linoleate, linolenate and arachidonate to the fatty acid methyl ester and free cholesterol under mild conditions is described. In adaptation of a published procedure the transesterification was carried out for two hr at room temperature in 1N NaOH in methanol:benzene (60:40, v/v).

Cholesteryl esters and ACAT

European Journal of Lipid Science and Technology, 2012
AbstractAcyl‐coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) 1 and 2 are both involved in intracellular cholesterol esterification. The expression of acyl‐coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase 1; (ACAT1) is ubiquitous, whereas, enterocytes and hepatocytes exclusively express acyl‐coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase 2 (ACAT2).

Radiolabeled cholesteryl ethers trace LDL cholesteryl esters but not HDL cholesteryl esters in the rat

Atherosclerosis, 1995
The intravascular metabolism of cholesteryl [1-14C]oleoyl ester and [1,2-3H(N)]cholesteryl palmityl ether was compared in the rat, an animal species without plasma cholesteryl ester transfer activity (CETA). The tracers had identical plasma disappearance rates when they were incorporated into human or rat low density lipoproteins (LDL).

Cholesteryl ester transfer protein and atherosclerosis

Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2000
Plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein facilitates the transfer of cholesteryl ester from HDL to apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins. Its significance in atherosclerosis has been debated in studies of human population genetics and transgenic mice.
