Dietary trans fatty acids increase serum cholesterylester transfer protein activity in man [PDF]
Atherosclerosis, 1995 The average diet may provide some 8-10 g/day of unsaturated fatty acids with a trans double bond. Previous studies showed that dietary trans fatty acids may simultaneously raise low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and reduce high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol.

A mathematical model to estimate cholesterylester transfer protein (CETP) triglycerides flux in human plasma. [PDF]
BMC Syst Biol, 2019 Cholesterylester transfer protein (CETP) modulates the composition of various lipoproteins associated with cardiovascular disease. Despite its central role in lipoprotein metabolism, its mode of action is still not fully understood. Here we present a simple way to estimate CETP-mediated lipid fluxes between different lipoprotein fractions.The model ...

Plasma lipoprotein subfraction concentrations are associated with lipid metabolism and age-related macular degeneration[S] [PDF]
Journal of Lipid Research, 2017 Disturbance in lipid metabolism has been suggested as a major pathogenic factor for age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Conventional lipid measures have been inconsistently associated with AMD.

The secondary structure of apolipoprotein A-I on 9.6-nm reconstituted high-density lipoprotein determined by EPR spectroscopy. [PDF]
The FEBS Journal, Volume 280, Issue 14, Page 3416-3424, July 2013., 2013 Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) is the major protein component of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and is critical for maintenance of cholesterol homeostasis.

The cholesterol-raising diterpenes from coffee beans increase serum lipid transfer protein activity levels in humans [PDF]
, 1997 Cafestol and kahweol–diterpenes present in unfiltered coffee— strongly raise serum VLDL and LDL cholesterol and slightly reduce HDL cholesterol in humans. The mechanism of action is unknown.

Hyperalphalipoproteinemia and Beyond: The Role of HDL in Cardiovascular Diseases [PDF]
, 2021 Hyperalphalipoproteinemia (HALP) is a lipid disorder characterized by elevated plasma high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels above the 90th percentile of the distribution of HDL-C values in the general population.

Selective Cholesterol Dynamics between Lipoproteins and Caveolae/Lipid Rafts [PDF]
, 2007 Although low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor-mediated cholesterol uptake through clathrin-coated pits is now well understood, the molecular details and organizing principles for selective cholesterol uptake/efflux (reverse cholesterol transport, RCT ...
