Cholesteryl ester transfer protein: the physiological and molecular characteristics in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and Alzheimer’s disease
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is involved in reverse cholesterol transport, mediates the exchange of cholesteryl esters for triglycerides between high-density lipoproteinsand low-density lipoproteins/very low-density lipoproteins. Lipid transfer mechanism by CETP is unknown. Two main mod...
