Cholesteryl ester transfer protein and its inhibitors [PDF]
Journal of Lipid Research, 2018 Most of the cholesterol in plasma is in an esterified form that is generated in potentially cardioprotective HDLs. Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) mediates bidirectional transfers of cholesteryl esters (CEs) and triglycerides (TGs) between ...

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 ...

Specificity of lipid transfer protein for molecular species of cholesteryl ester.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1988 The capacity of the plasma-derived lipid transfer protein to facilitate the transfer of various cholesteryl ester species has been investigated. Four different molecular species of cholesteryl ester were incorporated into either reconstituted high ...

Journal of Lipid Research, 1981 Normal human plasma HDL was applied to a column of heparin-Sepharose in the presence of MnCl(2) and three fractions were obtained by stepwise elution with increasing NaCl concentrations: a non-retained fraction (NR, 78% of protein) and two retained ...

Is hypertriglyceridemic very low density lipoprotein a precursor of normal low density lipoprotein?
Journal of Lipid Research, 1985 The precursor-product relationship of very low density (VLDL) and low density lipoproteins (LDL) was studied. VLDL obtained from normal (NTG) and hypertriglyceridemic (HTG) subjects was fractionated by zonal ultracentrifugation and subjected to in vitro ...

Journal of Lipid Research, 2009 Plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) activity is high in rabbits, intermediate in humans, and nondetectable in rodents. Human apolipoprotein CI (apoCI) was found to be a potent inhibitor of CETP.

Use of fluorescent cholesteryl ester microemulsions in cholesteryl ester transfer protein assays
Journal of Lipid Research, 1993 In the present report we describe a simple and practical method to assess CETP activity in a defined system by use of microemulsions containing a fluorescent cholesteryl ester analog.
