Journal of Lipid Research, 1989 Cholesteryl ethers are nonhydrolyzable tracers of cholesteryl esters. We report here that the ethers are not legitimate tracers of esters in systems involving plasma cholesteryl ester transfer activity.

STUDY ON CHOLESTERYL ESTER TRANSFER ACTIVITY IN CORONARY HEART DISEASE
, 1991 The net cholesterol transfer activity from high density lipoprotein (HDL) to low density lipoprotein (LDL) was determined in the patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) to examine its effect on the pathogenesis of arteriosclerosis. Furthermore, in the

Journal of Lipid Research, 1989 Cholesterol exists within the hepatocyte as free cholesterol and cholesteryl ester. The proportion of intrahepatic cholesterol in the free or ester forms is governed in part by the rate of cholesteryl ester formation by acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol ...

Prevalence of Cholesteryl Ester Storage Disease [PDF]
Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2007 Cholesteryl ester storage disease (CESD) is an autosomal recessive chronic liver disease caused by lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) deficiency. The gene is located on chromosome 10q23.2-q23.3, and the enzyme is essential for triglycerides and cholesteryl ester hydrolysis in lysosomes.

Cholesteryl ester transfer protein inhibition as a strategy to reduce cardiovascular risk
Journal of Lipid Research, 2012 Human and rabbit plasma contain a cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) that promotes net mass transfers of cholesteryl esters from high density lipoproteins (HDL) to other plasma lipoprotein fractions. As predicted, inhibition of CETP in both humans

Triglyceride and cholesteryl ester hydrolysis in a cell culture model of smooth muscle foam cells.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1989 Cultured rabbit aortic smooth muscle cells were converted to foam cells by exposure to sonicated lipid droplets of defined composition using an inverted culture technique. Uptake of the lipid droplets by the cells was shown to be dependent on the time of

Isolation and characterization of a phospholipid transfer protein (LTP-II) from human plasma.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1988 In this report we have described the purification of a human plasma phospholipid transfer protein, designated LTP-II, which displayed the following characteristics: i) facilitated both the exchange and net mass transfer of lipoprotein phospholipids; ii ...

Binding, interiorization and degradation of cholesteryl ester labelled chylomicron remnant particles by rat hepatocyte monolayers [PDF]
, 1977 1. The cholesteryl ester of isolated chylomicron-remnant particles was efficiently degraded by hepatocyte monolayers. The degradation was sensitive to metabolic inhibitors. 2.

Cholesteryl ester hydrolysis in J774 macrophages occurs in the cytoplasm and lysosomes
Journal of Lipid Research, 1999 The relationship of cholesteryl ester hydrolysis to the physical state of the cholesteryl ester in J774 murine macrophages was explored in cells induced to store cholesteryl esters either in anisotropic (ordered) inclusions or isotropic (liquid ...
