1 In plasma, cholesteryl ester transfer protein mediates the exchange and net transfer of cholesteryl ester and triglycerides among lipoproteins. Triglycerides cholesteryl ester transfer protein Homo sapiens
2 Cholesteryl ester transfer activity was readily detectable in cerebrospinal fluid (7.4 +/- 13% cholesteryl ester was transferred per 20 microliters), and this activity was completely abolished with specific antibody against the plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein. Cholesterol Esters cholesteryl ester transfer protein Homo sapiens
3 Cholesteryl ester transfer activity was readily detectable in cerebrospinal fluid (7.4 +/- 13% cholesteryl ester was transferred per 20 microliters), and this activity was completely abolished with specific antibody against the plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein. Cholesterol Esters cholesteryl ester transfer protein Homo sapiens
4 The concentration of cholesteryl ester transfer activity in the cerebrospinal fluid was about 12% of that found in plasma, whereas the concentration of albumin in cerebrospinal fluid was only about 0.6% of that in plasma, suggesting direct synthesis of cholesteryl ester transfer protein within the brain. Cholesterol Esters cholesteryl ester transfer protein Homo sapiens
