eNOS activation by HDL is impaired in genetic CETP deficiency.

eNOS activation by HDL is impaired in genetic CETP deficiency.

Mutations in the CETP gene resulting in defective CETP activity have been shown to cause remarkable elevations of plasma HDL-C levels, with the accumulation in plasma of large, buoyant HDL particles enriched in apolipoprotein E. Genetic CETP deficiency thus represents a unique tool to evaluate how s...
