Inhibition of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) lowers plasma low-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration and raises high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, suggesting it might prevent cardiovascular disease (CVD). From the outset, however, the concept has been controversial owing to uncertainty about its effects on HDL function and reverse cholesterol transport (RCT). Althoug...
Plasma lipid transfer proteins include plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) and phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP). Plasma CETP facilitates the transfer of cholesteryl ester (CE) from high-density lipoprotein (HDL) to apolipoprotein (apo) B-containing lipoproteins, and is a key protein in reverse cholesterol transport which protects vessel walls from atherosclerosis. The importanc...
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) activity is regulated, in part, by lipoprotein composition. We previously demonstrated that CETP activity follows saturation kinetics as cholesteryl ester (CE) levels in the phospholipid surface of donor particles are increased. We propose here that the plateau of CETP activity occurs because the surface concentration of CE in the acceptor becomes rate ...
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) transports cholesteryl esters, triglycerides, and phospholipids between different lipoprotein fractions in blood plasma. The inhibition of CETP has been shown to be a sound strategy to prevent and treat the development of coronary heart disease. We employed molecular dynamics simulations to unravel the mechanisms associated with the CETP-mediated lipid ...
OBJECTIVE Apolipoprotein (apo)C1 is a potent physiological inhibitor of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP). ApoC1 operates through its ability to modify the electrostatic charge at the lipoprotein surface. We aimed to determine whether the inhibitory ability of apoC1 is still effective in vivo in patients with diabetes and whether in vitro glycation of apoC1 influences its electrostatic ...
P revious studies have revealed an inverse association between high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and the risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). 2 HDL-C level is modulated by genetic factors as well as environmental factors such as obesity, smoking, and physical exercise. Hepatic lipase (HL) is a lipolytic enzyme in lipoprotein metabolism, functioning as a phospholipase, an...
The direct effect of apolipoprotein (apo) E on cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) activity was studied using lipoproteins from a subject with apoE deficiency (Atherosclerosis. 1991. 88: 15-20) as a model system. The transfer of cholesteryl ester (CE) from discoidal bilayer particles (DBP) to very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) was enhanced by incorporation of apoE into VLDL. This enhance...
BACKGROUND Xanthohumol is expected to be a potent anti-atherosclerotic agent due to its inhibition of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP). In this study, we hypothesized that xanthohumol prevents atherosclerosis in vivo and used CETP-transgenic mice (CETP-Tg mice) to evaluate xanthohumol as a functional agent. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Two strains of mice, CETP-Tg and C57BL/6N (wil...
The purpose of this paper is to explore whether the implementation carbon emissions trading policy (CETP) promotes finance, proxied by investment and financing facilitating reduction (IFCER), reduces emissions. Evidence shows that first, CETP effective in stimulating IFCER reducing Second, effects persist over time. Third, taking effect pilot regions can spill non-pilot nearby. Fourth, more pro...
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...
