Hepatic lipase (HL) and cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) have been independently associated with low density lipoprotein (LDL) and high density lipoprotein (HDL) size in different cohorts. These studies have been conducted mainly in men and in subjects with dyslipidemia. Ours is a comprehensive study of the proposed biochemical determinants (lipoprotein lipase, HL, CETP, and triglyceri...
OBJECTIVE To investigate the roles of inflammation and a cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) polymorphism potentially related to recent findings demonstrating coronary risk with increasing high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level. METHODS AND RESULTS A novel graphical exploratory data analysis tool allowed the examination of coronary risk in postinfarction patients relating to...
OBJECTIVE Although the relationship between cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) and cholesterol metabolism has been characterized in recent years, the effect of CETP genetic variants associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) is still unclear. Therefore, we investigated the association between CETP gene polymorphism and levels of lipid in patients with CAD. MATERIALS AND METHODS We c...
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP) gene TaqIB polymorphism and the lipid-lowering effect of atorvastatin in patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease. Two hundred eighty-eight patients were divided into a control group, an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) group, and a stable coronary heart disease (CHD) group. Blood bio...
BACKGROUND A low plasma HDL-cholesterol concentration is a major characteristic of diabetic dyslipidemia. HDL concentrations are determined by both environmental factors and genetic factors. Cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP) plays an important role in the regulation of HDL metabolism, and the TaqIB polymorphism of the CETP gene has been associated with elevated HDL concentrations. OBJ...
The TaqI B polymorphism in the cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP) (B1 and B2 alleles; rs708272) is associated with changes in enzyme activity and lipid concentrations. The B1 allele of the CETP gene is a known independent risk factor for genetic susceptibility to atrial fibrillation (AF); however, little is known about this polymorphism in the minority groups of Xinjiang, China. We exami...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is an enzyme with a key role in lipoprotein metabolism. A common genetic polymorphism, the Taq 1B, influences CETP activity and HDL-cholesterol levels, with individual homozygotes for the B1 allele exhibiting higher enzyme activity and lower HDL-cholesterol levels than carriers of at least one B2 allele. Our aim was to analyze the in...
BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown an association between the TaqIB polymorphism of the cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) gene with plasma CETP and HDL concentrations and the progression of coronary artery disease (CAD). The aim of the present study was to determine the performance of two new fluorescence-based detection systems in the analysis of the TaqIB genotype. METHODS CAD p...
The object of the present study was to investigate the association between common CETP polymorphism, TaqI in intron 1, and high density lipoprotein levels in Tehran population. In order to examine the relationship between B2 allele and HDL-C level, 356 people with the lowest, medium and highest deciles of HDL cholesterol levels were selected out of 993 healthy subjects from TLGS. Fa...
Background and objectives: Atherosclerosis results from a complex interaction between genetic and environmental factors. Free cholesterol efflux from peripheral tissues and transferring to the liver for excretion from bile which is known as reverse cholesterol transfer (RCT) plays a central role in protection against atherosclerosis. HDL and cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) are the maj...
