Popis: To evaluate the independent effect of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) on HDL concentrations in humans, we measured lipids, lipoproteins, postprandial lipemia after an oral fat load, CETP mass, and the activities of CETP, lipoprotein lipase (LPL), and hepatic lipase in 16 healthy, normotriglyceridemic men and in 23 men with moderate, primary hypertriglyceridemia on an American Heart Association Step I diet. Fasting triglycerides and postprandial lipemia were increased and HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) was decreased in hypertriglyceridemic men compared with control subjects ( P P P r =−.504, P =.014). Structural equation modeling of the association structures between HDL and fasting and postprandial triglycerides, endothelial lipases, and CETP in both groups indicated that the overall regression models for the two groups differed ( P P
