AIMS Inhibition of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) increases HDL-cholesterol. However, its combination with statins may increase mortality by factors incompletely understood. We previously observed that patients with intrinsically low CETP levels (carriers of the TaqIB-B2 allele) may have less benefit from statin therapy, and here tested this pharmacogenetic hypothesis on long-term ou...
AIMS Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) has a well-established role in lipoprotein metabolism, but the effect of its overexpression or inhibition on the efficiency of reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) is unclear. METHODS AND RESULTS Neither overexpression of CETP nor treatment with CETP inhibitor Torcetrapib of RAW 264.7 macrophages or HepG2 hepatocytes affected cholesterol efflux in...
We tested whether carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT) is associated with plasma cholesteryl ester transfer (CET) and/or the plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) concentration in type 2 diabetic and control subjects. In 87 male and female subjects with type 2 diabetes (nonsmokers, no insulin or lipid-lowering drug treatment) and 82 control subjects, IMT, plasma CET, CETP mass...
Apolipoprotein (apo)A-II is a major high density lipoprotein (HDL) protein; however, its role in lipoprotein metabolism is largely unknown. Transgenic (Tg) mice that overexpress human apoA-II present functional lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase deficiency, HDL deficiency, hypertriglyceridemia and, when fed an atherogenic diet, increased non-HDL cholesterol and increased susceptibility to at...
Hopes have been running high that treatments aimed at raising HDL levels would soon help to reduce the large burden of cardiovascular disease that remains in patients at high risk of CHD who are now treated with statins. The unexpected and premature termination of the ILLUMINATE study has dashed those hopes. This study was designed to determine the clinical outcome of raising HDL by treatment w...
Dyslipidemia is an abnormal lipid profile associated with many common diseases, including coronary heart disease and atherosclerosis. Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) a hydrophobic plasma glycoprotein that responsible for the of cholesteryl from high-density lipoprotein athero-protective particles to pro-atherogenic very low-density particles. The requirement new CETP inhibitors, which...
BACKGROUND Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitors raise high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, but torcetrapib, the first-in-class inhibitor tested in a large outcome trial, caused an unexpected blood pressure elevation and increased cardiovascular events. Whether the hypertensive effect resulted from CETP inhibition or an off-target action of torcetrapib has been debated. We...
زمینه و هدف : هیپرکلسترولمی یک فاکتور خطر اصلی برای بیماری های قلبی عروقی، آترواسکلروز و پانکراتیت می باشد. پلی مورفیسم های ژن کلسترول استر ترانسفر پروتیین می تواند با تغییراتی در میزان لیپیدها همراه باشد. در این مطالعه ارتباط پلی مورفیسم d442g ژن کلسترول استر ترانسفر پروتیین (cetp) را با الگوی لیپیدی و فعالیت cetp در بیماران هیپرکلسترولمی و گروه شاهد بررسی نمودیم. روش بررسی: در یک مطالعه مورد-...
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) facilitates movement of esterified cholesterol between high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) and apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins. By virtue of their ability to raise HDL cholesterol and lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, pharmacological inhibitors of CETP have received considerable attention as potential new agents in cardiovascular preventi...
Cardiovascular diseases, as coronary heart disease, failure, and hypertension are the first leading cause of death in United States third globally. CETP is a glycoprotein excreted mainly from liver found plasma. Normal plasma concentration 1-4 µg/ml, while ratio increased 70-80% dyslipidemic patients. There growing need for new inhibitors which encourages us to conduct this research. In work, s...
