Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) plays a key role in reverse cholesterol transport and high density lipoprotein (HDL) metabolism. Predominance of small, dense LDL particles is associated with an increased risk of atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease (CHD).The aim of the study was to determine the potential relationship between the CETP concentration and low density lipoprotein (L...
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) mediates cholesteryl ester (CE) transfer from the atheroprotective high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol to the atherogenic low density lipoprotein cholesterol. In the past decade, this property has driven the development of CETP inhibitors, which have been evaluated in large scale clinical trials for treating cardiovascular diseases. Despite the p...
The cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) transfers lipids among lipoprotein particles and plays a central role in lipoprotein metabolism. Humans with genetic deficiency of CETP have both elevated HDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein A-I concentrations as well as decreased LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B levels. The present study was undertaken to elucidate the metabolic basis for the de...
To assess the effects of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) on the primate lipoprotein profile, a transgenic mouse expressing cynomolgus monkey CETP was developed. The C57BL/6 mouse was used, and four lines expressing the primate CETP were established. The level of CETP activity in the plasma of the transgenic mice ranged from values similar to those obtained for the monkey to levels app...
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) transfers cholesteryl esters from nonatherogenic high-density lipoproteins to potentially proatherogenic non-high-density lipoprotein fractions. Human genetic studies and human cohort studies have concluded that CETP gene polymorphisms associated with decreased CETP activity are accompanied by a significantly lower risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular...
Previous reports attributed cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP)-mediated HDL cholesteryl ester (CE) selective uptake to the CETP-mediated transfer of CE from HDL to newly secreted apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins, which are then internalized by the LDL receptor (LDL-R). CETP has also been implicated in the remodeling of HDL, which renders it a better substrate for selective uptake...
The cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) facilitates the bidirectional transfer of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides (TG) between HDL and (V)LDL. By shifting cholesterol in plasma from HDL to (V)LDL in exchange for VLDL-TG, CETP aggravates atherosclerosis in hyperlipidemic APOE*3-Leiden (E3L) mice. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of CETP in TG metabolism and high-fat d...
The amino acid sequence of rabbit cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) has been obtained from cloned cDNA and genomic sequences. The 496 amino acid rabbit CETP has an overall sequence homology of 81% compared to the 476 amino acid human CETP, with two-thirds of the amino acid substitutions being conservative. Like human CETP, rabbit CETP is extremely hydrophobic, which is consistent with i...
The CETP (cholesteryl ester transfer protein) is a plasma protein synthesized in several tissues, mainly in the liver; CETP reduces plasma HDL (high-density lipoprotein) cholesterol and increases the risk of atherosclerosis. The effect of CETP levels on postprandial intravascular metabolism of TAGs (triacylglycerols) is an often-overlooked aspect of the relationship between CETP and lipoprotein...
RATIONALE Therapies that inhibit CETP (cholesteryl ester transfer protein) have failed to demonstrate a reduction in risk for coronary heart disease (CHD). Human DNA sequence variants that truncate the CETP gene may provide insight into the efficacy of CETP inhibition. OBJECTIVE To test whether protein-truncating variants (PTVs) at the CETP gene were associated with plasma lipid levels and CH...
