Heart Disease, Longevity, and Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein

, 2010
Genetics is a rapidly expanding field of biology. It is only within the last 25 years that whole genomes have been sequenced. At first the genomes that were sequenced were small such as that of H. Influenza and C. Elegans.

QSAR study of a series of cholesteryl ester transfer protein inhibitors

, 2011
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP), an enzyme which catalyses the transfer of cholesteryl ester from HDL to VLDL, is a promising target for discovery of novel antihyperlipidemic agents due to its pivotal role in HDL metabolism and reverse ...

'In vitro' cholesteryl ester bidirectional flow between high-density lipoproteins and triglyceride-rich emulsions: Effects of particle concentration and composition, cholesteryl ester transfer activity and oleic acid

, 2015
The cholesteryl ester flow between high-density lipoproteins (HDL) and triglyceride-rich lipoproteins was investigated utilizing HDL fractions and synthetic lipid emulsion particles (EM).

Probucol increases cholesteryl ester transfer protein activity in hypercholesterolaemic patients

, 1991
Probucol, a widely used lipid lowering drug, reduces both low- and high-density (LDL and HDL) lipoprotein levels and can induce a regression of tissue lipid deposits in both animals and man.

An Investigation of the Role of Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein in Lipid Metabolism [PDF]

, 1990
The investigation of the role of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) in lipid metabolism was divided into five main areas. These included the development of a reliable and reproducible assay for CETP activity, the development of polyclonal and ...

Bound Phospholipids Assist Cholesteryl Ester Transfer in the Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein

Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is a plasma glycoprotein that assists the transfer of cholesteryl esters (CEs) from antiatherogenic high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) to proatherogenic low-density lipoproteins (LDLs), initiating cholesterol ...

Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Benzylamino-Methanone Based Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein Inhibitors

, 2010
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is a glycoprotein involved in transporting lipoprotein particles and neutral lipids between high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and low density lipoproteins (LDL) and therefore its a proper target for treating ...

A Cholesterol Ester Transfer Protein Inhibitor Attenuates Atherosclerosis in Rabbits

, 2000
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is a plasma protein that mediates the exchange of cholesteryl ester in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) for triglyceride in very low density lipoprotein (VLDL)1,2.

Alimentary lipemia-induced redistribution of cholesteryl ester between lipoproteins. Studies in normolipidemic, combined hyperlipidemic, and hypercholesterolemic men.

, 1989
Alimentary lipemia stimulates the transfer of cholesteryl ester between lipoproteins in vitro and may alter lipoprotein cholesteryl ester distribution in vivo.
