Arterioscler Thromb Vasc 1995,15:112-120. The authors found a correlation between LDL-C and CETP activity in plasma from a large population of normo- and hyperlipidemic subjects and estimated the possible contribution of CETP to variance in LDL-C.

The authors identified consistent 'responders' and 'nonresponders' to dietary saturated fat; they also demonstrated that the individual response of LDL level to saturated fat was proportional to initial CETP activity.
