A triglyceride and cholesteryl ester transfer protein associated with liver microsomes.
An intracellular protein accelerates the transfer of triglyceride and cholesteryl ester. The fraction of phospholipid transferred was much less than for the less polar lipids. A rich source of this activity was obtained from low ionic strength washes of liver microsomes. The protein was partially purified by column chromatography on Bio-Gel A-5m and hydroxylapatite. The elution position of the ...
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 کاملPlasma 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 کاملI405V and -629C/A Polymorphisms of the Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein Gene in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease
Background: Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) plays a main role in high-density lipoprotein metabolism. CETP gene possesses several single nucleotide polymorphisms which have been associated with plasma high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations. The aim of this study was to determine the association of CETP -629C/A and I405V polymorphisms with coronary artery disease (...
متن کاملNeutral and acid retinyl ester hydrolases associated with rat liver microsomes: relationships to microsomal cholesteryl ester hydrolases.
We recently reported the presence of a neutral, bile salt-independent retinyl ester hydrolase (REH) activity in rat liver microsomes and showed that it was distinct from the previously studied bile salt-dependent REH and from nonspecific carboxylesterases (Harrison, E. H., and M. Z. Gad. 1989. J. Biol. Chem. 264: 17142-17147). We have now further characterized the hydrolysis of retinyl esters b...
