| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To establish cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC) method with stable isotope-labeled cholesterol, a fundamental method to progress this study project, was viewed as a critical issue to be addressed. The incidence of cardiovascular events is inversely correlated, to a greater extent, with cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC) than with HDL-cholesterol level. Here we established a CEC measurement technique using stable isotope-labeled cholesterol as an alternative to conventional radioisotope (RI)-labeled cholesterol. Our established stable-isotope method will facilitate CEC measurement in clinical laboratories.
