Cholesteryl ester transfer protein and mortality in patients undergoing coronary angiography: the Ludwigshafen Risk and Cardiovascular Health study.
BACKGROUND The role of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) in the development of atherosclerosis is still open to debate. In the Investigation of Lipid Level Management to Understand its Impact in Atherosclerotic Events (ILLUMINATE) trial, inhibition of CETP in patients with high cardiovascular risk was associated with increased high-density lipoprotein levels but increased risk of cardio...
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 کاملState and Trait Anxiety in Patients Undergoing Coronary Angiography
Background and Objectives: Studies have shown that patients awaiting coronary angiography (CA) are often anxious. High level of anxiety can lead to physical and psychological stress with adverse effects on organs, especially heart. There is limited information on state and trait anxiety level in these patients in the literature. This study was thus designed to investigate the level of these tw...
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...
