SC-71952, a substituted analog of dithiobisnicotinic acid dimethyl ester, was identified as a potent inhibitor of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP). When tested in an in vitro assay, the concentration of SC-71952 required for half-maximal inhibition was 1 microm. The potency of SC-71952 was enhanced 200-fold by preincubation of the inhibitor with CETP, and was decreased 50-fold by treatment with dithiothreitol. Analogs of SC-71952 that did not contain a disulfide linkage were less…

Description of the torcetrapib series of cholesteryl ester transfer protein inhibitors, including mechanism of actions⃞
TLDR
It is demonstrated that a series of potent cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitors bind specifically to CETP with 1:1 stoichiometry and block both neutral lipid and phospholipid transfer activities.
Biochemical characterization of cholesteryl ester transfer protein inhibitors
TLDR
The biochemical characterization of anacetrapib, a potent inhibitor of CETP, was described and dalcetrapib was found to covalently label both human and mouse plasma proteins, indicating that these inhibitors promote the formation of a complex between CETP and HDL, resulting in inhibition of CETp activity.
Molecular Mechanism of the Blockade of Plasma Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein by Its Physiological Inhibitor Apolipoprotein CI*
TLDR
It was concluded that the inhibition of CETP activity by apo CI is in direct link with its specific electrostatic properties, and the apoCI-mediated reduction in the binding properties of lipoproteins results in weaker CETP-HDL interactions and fewer cholesteryl ester transfers.
Effect of JTT-705 on cholesteryl ester transfer protein and plasma lipid levels in normolipidemic animals.
Structure and Function of Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein in the Tree Shrew
TLDR
It is demonstrated that liver is the main tissue synthesizing CETP in the tree shrew, and the residues at position 344 and 452 play essential roles in cholesteryl ester transferring process.
Modulating cholesteryl ester transfer protein activity maintains efficient pre-β-HDL formation and increases reverse cholesterol transport[S]
TLDR
Modulation of CETP activity by dalcetrapib does not inhibit CETP-induced pre-β-HDL formation, which may be required to increase reverse cholesterol transport.
Transfer of phosphatidylethanol between lipoproteins.
TLDR
The transfer ofPEth between lipoproteins enables the redistribution of PEth from lipoprotein fractions with a slow turnover to those with a rapid clearance, and the PEth-induced change in the electrical charge of lipo-binding proteins may affect the binding of lipobroteins to their receptors and binding proteins.
Oral cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitors: a potential new approach for treating coronary artery disease.

TLDR
For the first time, pharmacological agents are available that have the potential to elevate HDLc in patients with low HDLc to about the same extent that the current standard of care drugs reduce LDLc in hyperlipidemic patients.
An update on the clinical development of dalcetrapib (RO4607381), a cholesteryl ester transfer protein modulator that increases HDL cholesterol levels.
TLDR
Dalcetrapib has allowed us to test the hypothesis that an isolated, moderate elevation in HDL cholesterol prevents cardiovascular events, and has been well tolerated at the 600-mg dose.

TLDR
In healthy subjects with mild dyslipidaemia, the CETP inhibitors JTT-705 and torcetrapib increased HDL-cholesterol and decreased low-density lipoprotein-ch cholesterol.

Inactivation of cholesteryl ester transfer protein by cysteine modification.
TLDR
It is suggested that CETP contains an essential free cysteine that resides in a hydrophobic environment within the protein, and is proportional to the chain length of the fatty acyl portion of the molecule.
Inhibition of cholesteryl ester transfer protein by apolipoproteins, lipopolysaccharides, and cholesteryl sulfate.
Physical and kinetic characterization of recombinant human cholesteryl ester transfer protein.
TLDR
Data suggest that CETP has a non-spheroidal shape in solution, and in dual-label transfer experiments, the transfer rates for CE or TG from HDL to LDL were found to be proportional to the initial concentrations of the respective ligands in the donor HDL particles.
Human plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein consists of a mixture of two forms reflecting variable glycosylation at asparagine 341.
TLDR
Recombinant CETP (rCETP), derived from stable expression of the CETP cDNA in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, appeared as a protein doublet comparable to plasma CETP, suggesting residual N-linked carbohydrates resistant to glyco F digestion.
Kinetics and inhibition of lipid exchange catalyzed by plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (lipid transfer protein).
TLDR
Kinetic analysis shows that U-95,594, an amino steroid, inhibits competitively the cholesteryl ester transfer protein-catalyzed transfer of both cholesterol esters and triglycerides, as well from high-density lipoproteins as from synthetic microemulsions.
Epitope mapping for the anti-rabbit cholesteryl ester transfer protein monoclonal antibody that selectively inhibits triglyceride transfer.
TLDR
It is concluded that the limited interaction of Mab with a common lipid interaction site causes selective inhibition of the transfer of triglyceride that has presumably lower priority than cholesteryl ester for the CETP reaction.

Cloning and sequencing of human cholesteryl ester transfer protein cDNA
TLDR
The preparation of a highly active CETP of M r 74,000 purified about 100,000-fold from human plasma may represent the functional component of earlier preparations, and complementary DNA derived from human liver DNA has been cloned and sequenced and the cloned DNA used to detect CETP messenger RNA in a number of human tissues.
Purification and characterization of lipid transfer protein(s) from human lipoprotein-deficient plasma.
TLDR
It is concluded that triglyceride and cholesteryl ester are transferred by the same plasma protein(s) through sequential purification by phenyl-Sepharose, CM-cellulose, chromatofocusing, and gel filtration.
