From: Ciprofibrate increases cholesteryl ester transfer protein gene expression and the indirect reverse cholesterol transport to the liver

Figure 2

Ciprofibrate treatment delays plasma removal of 3H-cholesteryl ether (3HCet) derived from HDL. Plasma kinetic of 3HCet labeled HDL injected intraperitoneally into ciprofibrate treated and control CETP transgenic mice was followed through 6 hours. Each point represents the average of radioactivity in plasma from 6 mice per group. The area under the radioactivity versus time curve was 23% larger for the treated than for control CETP mice (704 ± 39 vs. 572 ± 55 × 103 dpm.h, respectively, p < 0.05).
