Sitagliptin promotes macrophage-to-feces RCT in obese insulin resistant CETP-apoB100 transgenic mice.

Dr François Briand, Head of Diabetic Dyslipidemia, and Physiogenex team unveil the results of a new study that supports the potential of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors to promote Reverse Cholesterol Transport (RCT) through reduced intestinal cholesterol absorption.

CETP inhibitor torcetrapib promotes reverse cholesterol transport in obese insulin-resistant CETP-ApoB100 transgenic mice.

Dr François Briand, Head of Diabetic Dyslipidemia, and Physiogenex team unveils the results of a new study that supports the potential of CETP inhibitors to prevent cardiovascular risk like dyslipidemia, a major characteristic of type 2 diabetic patients.

A new study demonstrates that the CETP inhibitor anacetrapib promotes macrophage-to-feces reverse cholesterol transport in a dyslipidemic hamster model.

 Using independent approaches to assess cholesterol metabolism (macrophage-to-feces reverse cholesterol transport, HDL-cholesteryl esters kinetics and measurement of bulk cholesterol and bile acids in feces), this study supports the development of the CETP inhibitor anacetrapib as a novel lipid therapy for the treatment of dyslipidemia and atherosclerosis.
