Cholesteryl ester transfer protein expression attenuates atherosclerosis in ovariectomized mice
Reduced estrogen levels result in loss of protection from coronary heart disease in postmenopausal women. Enhanced and diminished atherosclerosis have been associated with plasma levels of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP); however, little is ...

GSTM4 enhances the interaction between ACLY and the E3 ubiquitin ligase TRIM27, thereby increasing K48‐linked ubiquitination at the K554 site of ACLY and promoting its degradation. Consequently, GSTM4 regulates lipid synthesis, as well as the proliferation and metastasis of PCa cells, by modulating ACLY stability.

Fenofibrate increases HDL-cholesterol by reducing cholesteryl ester transfer protein expression
In addition to efficiently decreasing VLDL-triglycerides (TGs), fenofibrate increases HDL-cholesterol levels in humans. We investigated whether the fenofibrate-induced increase in HDL-cholesterol is dependent on the expression of the cholesteryl ester ...

How anacetrapib inhibits the activity of the cholesteryl ester transfer protein? Perspective through atomistic simulations. [PDF]
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) mediates the reciprocal transfer of neutral lipids (cholesteryl esters, triglycerides) and phospholipids between different lipoprotein fractions in human blood plasma. A novel molecular agent known as anacetrapib

Decreased PLTP mass but elevated PLTP activity linked to insulin resistance in HTG
Hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) is associated with insulin resistance, increased cholesteryl ester transfer (CET), and low HDL cholesterol. Phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) may be involved in these relationships.

ABSTRACT Atherosclerosis is driven by coordinated changes in endothelial cells (ECs), macrophages, and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Post‐translational modifications (PTMs), phosphorylation, acetylation, ubiquitination, SUMOylation, O‐GlcNAcylation, palmitoylation, ISGylation, and ADP‐ribosylation, integrate metabolic, inflammatory, and ...

Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) plays a controversial role in atherogenesis by contributing to the net transfer of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesteryl ester (CE) to the liver via apolipoprotein-B-containing lipoproteins (apoB-LP).

The effects of curcumin and a modified curcumin formulation on serum Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein concentrations in patients with metabolic syndrome: A randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial [PDF]
Objective: Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein (CETP) mediates the transfer of cholesteryl ester from HDL-C to LDL-C and VLDL-C. The aim of the present trial was to evaluate the effect of curcumin and its modified formulation on serum CETP concentrations ...

Lipid transfer inhibitor protein (LTIP) exists in both active and inactive forms. Incubation (37°C) of plasma causes LTIP to transfer from a 470 kDa inactive complex to LDL where it is active. Here, we investigate the mechanisms underlying this movement.
