Delayed catabolism of high density lipoprotein apolipoproteins A-I and A-II in human cholesteryl ester transfer protein deficiency.

Deficiency of the cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) in humans is characterized by markedly elevated plasma concentrations of HDL cholesterol and apoA-I. To assess the metabolism of HDL apolipoproteins in CETP deficiency, in vivo apolipoprotein kinetic studies were performed using endogenous ... View More
