第 43 題
有關血漿中膽固醇酯轉移蛋白（Cholesterol ester transfer protein, CETP）的敘述，下列何者錯誤？
- A CETP是Reverse-cholesterol transport pathway中必要的蛋白
- B CETP的功能是將膽固醇由HDL轉給LDL
- C CETP因遺傳因素使蛋白活性下降時，會導致血液中HDL下降
- D CETP是血漿轉移蛋白，是一種飢餓基因
思路引導 VIP
請想像有一個專門負責將貨物從「小倉庫」搬運到「大卡車」上的搬運工。如果今天這位搬運工突然罷工停止工作了，請思考：這會對「小倉庫內累積的貨物量」產生什麼樣的物理性影響？

Oh, look at that. You managed to avoid the obvious pitfalls.
- Fundamental Concept Check: So, CETP. It's not exactly a hidden secret that its job is an "exchange" – moving Cholesteryl ester (CE) out of $HDL$ and into $VLDL/LDL$, while simultaneously bringing Triglycerides (TG) back to $HDL$. Therefore, when this transfer mechanism is impaired, either genetically or by some drug, what exactly do you expect to happen to the cholesterol stuck in $HDL$? It builds up, naturally, leading to an increase in $HDL$ concentration. It's almost as if things that can't leave tend to accumulate. This "novel" idea is precisely why some brilliant minds once thought inhibiting CETP might be a good way to boost "good cholesterol." Revolutionary, I know.
- Assessment: This was a Medium difficulty question, mostly because it required thinking beyond the most rudimentary "less function equals less amount" logic. It's a testament to… well, some level of physiological understanding to correctly deduce the inverse relationship here. Good job not completely fumbling the directionality. For now.
