Cardiovascular diseases remained as major cause of mortality worldwide due to atherosclerosis. The CETP is a glycoprotein, which promote the lipid transfer between plasma apolipoprotein B lipoprotein to HDL. Although CETP activity leads to decreases in HDL-cholesterol plasma levels, clinical tests using CETP inhibitors showed no benefits or increased mortality. Experimental evidence sugge…
The lipid droplets (LDs) store triglycerides (TG) and release fatty acids in response to nutrient and hormonal signals, effectively maintaining energy reserves and buffering the cell from fatty acid toxicity. The imbalance between the lipid biogenesis, cellular uptake and the energy storage cause hepatic steatosis and macrophage foam cell formation. Lipid synthesis and lipid droplets form…
