Adipose tissue cholesteryl ester transfer protein mRNA in response to probucol treatment: cholesterol and species dependence.
Probucol treatment results in an increase in plasma concentrations of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) which may account, in part, for the effects of this agent on plasma concentrations of HDL cholesterol. We have examined the mechanism by which probucol increases plasma CETP and have determined the associated changes in the plasma distribution of high density lipoprotein (HDL) particl...
متن کاملCholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) mRNA abundance in human adipose tissue: relationship to cell size and membrane cholesterol content.
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) has a well-defined role in plasma neutral lipid transport. CETP synthesized by human adipose tissue may contribute to the plasma CETP pool. CETP mRNA abundance increases in subcutaneous adipose tissue in response to cholesterol feeding and we have hypothesized that CETP gene expression is regulated by a specific pool of cellular sterol. In the present s...

متن کاملHuman liposarcoma cell line, SW872, secretes cholesteryl ester transfer protein in response to cholesterol.
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) mediates the exchange of phospholipids and neutral lipids between the plasma lipoproteins, and plays an important role in high density lipoprotein (HDL) metabolism. While there are reports of low-level CETP secretion from cultured cells, the lack of a good model cell line has hampered the detailed study of CETP regulation and secretion. In this study, w...
متن کاملCholesteryl ester transfer protein inhibition: effect on reverse cholesterol transport?
Statins, inhibitors of the key enzyme in the biosynthesis of cholesterol (ie, 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl [HMG]coenzyme A [CoA] reductase), are widely used as the prevailing strategy to combat atherosclerosis through reducing LDL cholesterol levels. Large-scale clinical trials have shown that statins markedly reduce coronary events.1,2 A meta-analysis of 22 studies enrolling nearly 70 000 indivi...
