CETP (cholesteryl ester transfer protein) promotes hepatobiliary cholesterol secretion at the expense of intestinal. CETP diverts HDL (high-density lipoprotein)-cholesteryl esters away from the ...

The intercellular distribution and transport of cholesterol is a well-characterized process. However, the specific events that characterize the intracellular movement and distribution of ...

Consistently elevated stress levels can increase your chances of high cholesterol levels, research suggests. Several studies have indicated that stress may contribute to elevated cholesterol and ...

High levels of cholesterol may gradually clog your arteries, which makes it more difficult for blood to flow. This increases the likelihood of high blood pressure, heart attack, and stroke if not ...
