Molecular biology and pathophysiological aspects of plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein.

Biochimica et biophysica acta - 15 Dec 2000

Yamashita S, Hirano K, Sakai N, Matsuzawa Y

Abstract excerpt

Plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) facilitates the transfer of cholesteryl ester (CE) from high density lipoprotein (HDL) to apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins. Since CETP regulates the plasma levels of HDL cholesterol and the size of HDL particles, CETP is considered to be a key protein in reverse cholesterol transport, a protective system against atherosclerosis. CETP, as well as plasma...
