Inhibition of cholesterol ester transfer protein by CGS 25159 and changes in lipoproteins in hamsters

As a result of screening, several isoflavans were identified to be antagonists of cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP) activity. The present study evaluates CGS 25159, a synthetic isoflavan, as a putative inhibitor of CETP activity of human and hamster plasma. Determined by [3H]CE transfer from...

Zusammenfassung:As a result of screening, several isoflavans were identified to be antagonists of cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP) activity. The present study evaluates CGS 25159, a synthetic isoflavan, as a putative inhibitor of CETP activity of human and hamster plasma. Determined by [3H]CE transfer from HDL to VLDL+LDL fraction or by fluorescent-CE transfer assay, CGS 25159 inhibited CETP in both human plasma bottom fraction (d=1.21 g/ml) and in plasma from Golden Syrian Hamsters with an IC50
