Abstract
The interconnections between cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) expression and lipid metabolism, and the possible roles of CETP in atherogenesis are examined. The importance of lipid transfer inhibitor protein in modulating CETP activity is detailed, and the consequences of this inhibitory activity on CETP-mediated events are proposed.Keywords
