Cholesteryl ester transfer protein inhibitors for dyslipidemia: focus on dalcetrapib
Among the noteworthy recent stories in the management and prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the saga of the development of pharmacological inhibitors of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP). Inhibiting CETP significantly raises plasma concentrations of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, which has long been considered a marker of reduced CVD risk. However, the...
متن کاملInhibition of cholesteryl ester transfer protein by torcetrapib modestly increases macrophage cholesterol efflux to HDL.
OBJECTIVE This study examines the effects of pharmacological inhibition of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) on the ability of high-density lipoprotein particles (HDL) to promote net cholesterol efflux from human THP-1 macrophage foam cells. METHODS AND RESULTS Two groups of 8 healthy, moderately hyperlipidemic subjects received the CETP inhibitor torcetrapib at 60 or 120 mg daily for...

متن کاملFenofibrate increases HDL-cholesterol by reducing cholesteryl ester transfer protein expression.
In addition to efficiently decreasing VLDL-triglycerides (TGs), fenofibrate increases HDL-cholesterol levels in humans. We investigated whether the fenofibrate-induced increase in HDL-cholesterol is dependent on the expression of the cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP). To this end, APOE*3-Leiden (E3L) transgenic mice without and with the human CETP transgene, under the control of its nat...
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...
