Cholesteryl ester transfer protein mutations, protein activity and HDL-cholesterol concentration.

Abstract excerpt

We have examined a group of North American subjects, selected to include individuals with a wide variety of HDL-cholesterol concentrations for: 1) mutations in the genes coding for cholesteryl ester transfer protein and hepatic lipase, 2) apolipoprotein E genotype, 3) total cholesterol and triglycerides, 4) HDL-triglycerides. Cholesteryl ester transfer protein activity was also estimated, using a novel technique...
