Background In several observational and clinical studies, the association between serum
cholesterol levels and cancer is still unsettled although serum total cholesterol has been …

Background Xanthohumol is expected to be a potent anti-atherosclerotic agent due to its
inhibition of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP). In this study, we hypothesized that …
