Genetic variation of PLTP modulates lipoprotein profiles in hypoalphalipoproteinemia

Genetic variation of PLTP modulates lipoprotein profiles in hypoalphalipoproteinemia

Phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) participates in key processes in lipoprotein metabolism, including interparticle phospholipid transfer, remodeling of HDL, cholesterol and phospholipid efflux from peripheral tissues, and the production of hepatic VLDL. The impact of PLTP on reverse cholesterol t...
