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 کاملPlasma concentrations of cholesteryl ester transfer protein in hyperlipoproteinemia. Relation to cholesteryl ester transfer protein activity and other lipoprotein variables.
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) mediates an important pathway for reverse cholesterol transport. Concentrations of CETP in fasting plasma were measured by radioimmunoassay in two different groups of hyperlipoproteinemic subjects. Plasma CETP concentrations measured by radioimmunoassay correlated closely with cholesterol ester transfer activity in normal plasma (r = 0.86). In the first...
متن کاملTransfer of cholesteryl ester into high density lipoprotein by cholesteryl ester transfer protein: effect of HDL lipid and apoprotein content.
Recombinant high density lipoprotein (rHDL) particles were prepared by cosonication of purified lipids and human apoproteins and incubated with partly purified cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) and low density lipoprotein (LDL) containing [3H]cholesteryl ester. Increasing the triglyceride content relative to cholesteryl ester in rHDL significantly decreased the ability of the particles ...
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...
متن کاملInhibition of cholesteryl ester transfer protein by fungal metabolites, L681,512.
The cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) promotes exchange and transfer of neutral lipids such as cholesteryl ester (CE) and triacylglycerol (TG) between plasma lipoproteins. Evidence is accumulating for involvement of CETP in atherosclerosis1'2). Therefore, CETP is expected as a novel target of inhibition for anti-atherosclerotic agents. In the course of our screening for CETP inhibitors ...
