摘要: RG7232 is a potent inhibitor of cholesteryl-ester transfer protein (CETP). Daily oral administration produces dose- and time-dependent increase in high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) apolipoproteinA-I (ApoA-I) levels corresponding decrease low-density (LDL-C) apolipoproteinB (ApoB) levels. Due to its short plasma half-life (∼3 hours), transiently inhibits CETP activity during each dosing interval ("on/off" kinetics), as reflected by the temporal effects on HDL-C LDL-C. The influence lipid-poor ApoA-I (i.e., pre-β 1) reverse cholesterol transport rates unclear. To investigate this, published model lipoprotein metabolism kinetics was combined with pharmacokinetic RG7232. After calibration validation model, effect 1 simulated. A dose-dependent oscillation 1, driven "on/off" observed. possible implications these findings are discussed.
