The cholesterol ester transfer protein regulates cholesterol efflux from peripheral tissues. The cholesterol ester transfer protein is encoded by CETP gene. The review describes the association of CETP gene variants with metabolic changes in different diets. The association of diet and metabolic changes depends on the sample size, individual and age characteristics of the patients, the duration of the observation, and the analysis of the spectrum of the CETP gene variants.
