Abstract

Objectives: Reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) is a pivotal atheroprotective mechanism effectuated predominantly by apolipoprotein AI/High-density lipoprotein. In contrast to animal models, infusion of apoAI in cardiovascular (CV)-patients has not resulted in plaque regression1, potentially related to reduced local delivery in humans. To date, no data are available on delivery of apoAI in plaques. We set out to label engineered human apolipoprotein AI preβHDL particle (CER001, Cerenis) with the radio-isotope 89Zirconium (Zr) allowing for PET-CT imaging.
