Constitutive inhibition of plasma CETP by apolipoprotein C1 is blunted in dyslipidemic patients with coronary artery disease[S]

Plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) promotes the cholesterol enrichment of apoB-containing lipoproteins (VLDL and LDL) at the expense of HDL. Recent studies demonstrated that apoC1 is a potent CETP inhibitor in plasma of healthy, normolipidemic subjects. Our goal was to establish whethe...
