    A CETP inhibitor is a member of a class of drugs that inhibit cholesterylester transfer protein (CETP). [1] [2] ...

  4. Cholesteryl ester - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cholesteryl_ester

    Cholesterol oleate, a member of the cholesteryl ester family. Cholesteryl esters are a type of dietary lipid and are ester derivatives of cholesterol. The ester bond is formed between the carboxylate group of a fatty acid and the hydroxyl group of cholesterol. Cholesteryl esters have a lower solubility in water due to their increased ...

    Dalcetrapib [4] (INN, codenamed JTT-705) is a CETP inhibitor which was originally being developed by F. Hoffmann–La Roche until May 2012. [5] [6] DalCor Pharmaceuticals licensed dalcetrapib as a potential pioneering precision medicine for patients with cardiovascular disease. By combining genetic and clinical insights into the development ...

  7. Reverse cholesterol transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_cholesterol_transport

    The cholesteryl esters can be transferred, with the help of CETP (cholesterylester transfer protein) in exchange for triglycerides, to ApoB-containing lipoproteins (LDL, VLDL, IDL). These other lipoproteins can be eventually taken up by the liver through their own receptors – an alternate route for liver uptake – or end up transporting the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evacetrapib

    Evacetrapib was a drug under development by Eli Lilly and Company (investigational name LY2484595) that inhibits cholesterylester transfer protein (CETP inhibitor).CETP collects triglycerides from very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) or low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and exchanges them for cholesteryl esters from high-density lipoproteins (HDL), and vice versa, but primarily increasing high ...

    Hormone-sensitive lipase (EC 3.1.1.79, HSL), also previously known as cholesteryl ester hydrolase (CEH), [5] sometimes referred to as triacylglycerol lipase, is an enzyme that, in humans, is encoded by the LIPE gene, [6] and catalyzes the following reaction: (1) diacylglycerol + H 2 O = monoacylglycerol + a carboxylate
