Plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein and high-density lipoproteins: new insights from molecular genetic studies.

Journal of internal medicine - 1 Jan 1995

Tall A R

Abstract excerpt

Recent studies in transgenic mice provide strong evidence for a direct anti-atherogenic role of high-density lipoproteins (HDL) and highlight the importance of multiple gene interactions in the regulation of HDL levels. Plasma lipid transfer processes mediated by cholesteryl ester transfer protei...
