Popis: | Abstract The relations between the level of plasma nonesterified fatty acid (NEFA) and both the mass concentration and activity of the cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) were studied in fasted normolipidemic subjects. Plasma NEFA correlated positively with both CETP mass concentration ( r =.50; P HDL→VLDL+LDL activity) ( r =.46; P LDL→HDL activity) ( r =−.05; NS). The high binding capacity of albumin for NEFA was used to investigate whether lipoprotein-bound NEFAs were implicated in the modulation of the cholesteryl ester transfer reaction. As compared with nonsupplemented controls, the addition of an excess of fatty acid–free albumin (8 g/L) to total normolipidemic plasmas reduced CET HDL→VLDL+LDL activity (18.3±5.5% versus 9.8±3.1%; P LDL→HDL activity (22.3±4.5% versus 23.3±5.1%; NS). Moreover, CET HDL→VLDL+LDL and CET LDL→HDL activities correlated negatively when measured in native plasma ( r =−.45; P r =.40; P |
