Developmental Expression of Elements of Hepatic Cholesterol Metabolism In The Rat [PDF]
The expression of several key enzymes and receptors of rat hepatic cholesterol metabolism was studied during development. Among major findings were: acyl coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase, the cholesteryl ester hydrolases, cholesterol-7 alpha ...

Vascular effects and safety of dalcetrapib in patients with or at risk of coronary heart disease: the dal-VESSEL randomized clinical trial [PDF]
Aims High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is inversely associated with cardiovascular (CV) events and thus an attractive therapeutic target. However, in spite of marked elevations in HDL-C, the first cholesterol transport protein (CETP) inhibitor

Msp1 Polymorphism of Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein in Patients with Hypercholesterolemia
Introduction & Objective: It has been shown that there is a correlation between cholesterol con-centration and coronary heart disease (CHD). Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) plays a central role in lipoproteins metabolism and it has been ...

Evaluation of phospholipid transfer protein and cholesteryl ester transfer protein as contributors to the generation of pre beta-high-density lipoproteins [PDF]
High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) are considered anti-atherogenic because they mediate peripheral cell cholesterol transport to the liver for excretion and degradation.
