| Research Abstract |
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein(CETP) inhibitors increase the concentration of HDL having large particle size and an abundance of apolipoprotein(apo) E, which is known as"apoE-rich HDL". However, there have been no published studies to date on techniques for measuring apoE-rich HDL and anti-atherogenic functions such as the ability removing cholesterol. In this study, we demonstrated the anti-atherogenic action of apoE-rich HDL using serum samples from patients with CETP deficiency or cholestasis associated with elevated levels of this type of lipoprotein like CETP inhibitors. Furthermore, we developed a method for measuring total HDL cholesterol(HDL-C) including apoE-rich HDL using a nonionic surfactant, a polyalkylene glycol, with high specificity for this HDL.
