A CYP7A promoter binding factor site and Alu repeat in the distal promoter region are implicated in regulation of human CETP gene expression

The cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) plays a key role in reverse cholesterol transport in mediating the transfer of cholesteryl ester from HDL to atherogenic apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins (VLDL, IDL, and LDL). Variation in plasma CETP mass in both normolipidemic and dyslipidemic...
