Plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein.
The plasma lipoproteins are continuously remodeled during their transit through the plasma compartment, owing to the action of lipid metabolizing enzymes and lipid transfer processes. These activities have a major effect on the composition, size, and concentration of the lipoproteins. Lipid transfer processes involving neutral lipids and phospholipids are mediated by specialized plasma proteins...
متن کاملTriglyceride and cholesteryl ester hydrolysis
Cultured rabbit aortic smooth muscle cells were converted to foam cells by exposure to sonicated lipid droplets of defined composition using an inverted culture technique. Uptake of the lipid droplets by the cells was shown to be dependent on the time of exposure to the droplets and on the mass of droplets presented to the cells. A comparison of the hydrolysis of triolein and cholesteryl oleate...
متن کاملDifferent locations of cholesteryl ester transfer protein and phospholipid transfer protein activities in plasma.
Activities of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) and phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) were measured in plasma of four vertebrate species: man, rabbit, pig, and rat. The activities were measured in the absence and presence of antibodies raised against purified human CETP. PLTP activities were present in all four species with highest values in pig (11.7 +/- 1.2 U/ml) and human plasma (...
متن کاملAcute and chronic effects of a 24-hour intravenous triglyceride emulsion challenge on plasma lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase, phospholipid transfer protein, and cholesteryl ester transfer protein activities.
Lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT), phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP), and cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) are key factors in remodeling of high density lipoproteins (HDL) and triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. We examined the effect of a large, 24 h intravenous fat load on plasma lipids and free fatty acids (FFA) as well as on plasma LCAT, PLTP, and CETP activity levels in 8...
متن کاملAccelerated Cholesteryl Ester Transfer
To discern the mechanism(s) that underlie abnormal cholesteryl ester transfer (CET) in patients with hypercholesterolemia, we have studied this dysfunctional step in reverse cholesterol transport in 13 subjects with genetically heterogeneous forms of hypercholesterolemia (HC). In all HC patients, the mass of CE transferred in whole plasma from HDL to VLDL and LDL increased rapidly initially and...
