| CETP | cholesteryl ester transfer protein, plasma | Homozygousity for the I405V variant of CETP is associated with exceptional longevity and larger HDL and LDL particle sizes as well as lower prevalence of hypertension, cardivascular disease, and metabolic disease among Askenazi Jews [14559957]. CETP I405V homozygousity is associated with exceptional longevity and preservation of cognitive function in Askenazi Jews [17190939].
V/V homozygotes tend to have a 9-23% CETP deficiency [9610775; 15243211]. A decrease in CETP function increases HDL (high density lipoproteins) levels in the body, and decreases LDL (low-density lipoprotein). The result of this s that HDL-c levels are approximately equal in individuals with the I/I or I/V genotypes, while there are ten percent higher in V/V individuals [9610775].
Therefore the V/V SNP acts kind like an endogenous *CEPT inhibitor*, which might be the responsible for the increase in longevity but may also have side effects.CETP was found to be associated with longevity [22336474].CETP was found to be associated with longevity [15621216].CETP was found to be associated with longevity [15888337].

Neither the XbaI-RFLP nor the EcoRI-RFLP was able to discriminate between centenarians and controls, while the 3'APOB-VNTR multiallelic system revealed significant differences between the samples: the frequency of alleles with fewer than 35 repeats was lower in centenarians than in controls [9050915].apoB was found to be associated with longevity [17393087].APOB was found to be associated with longevity [15028112].

| ACE | angiotensin I converting enzyme (peptidyl-dipeptidase A) 1 | The I/D polymorphism in ACE was a examined in centenarians (n = 338) and in adults aged 20-70 years. A variant of ACE which predisposes the coronary heat disease was more frequently in centenarians with a significant increase of the homozygous genotype [8136829].
I/D polymorphism was examined in 182 women and 100 men aged >84 years and in 100 boys and 100 girls younger than 17 years. The I/I polymorphism was depleted in the elderly males but not in the elderly females. Furthermore, significant differences were observed between ACE genotypes in elderly men and elderly women [9105559].
I/D polymorphism was examined in 394 French centenarians (13% men and 87% women) and controls (238) from 20 to 70 years of age (140 men and 98 women). Both the ACE D allele and ACE D/D genotype were more frequent in centenarians in comparison with controls, without sex-related differences nor significant correlation with a cardiovascular pathology [9761238].
I/D polymorphism was examined in 424 subjects comprising 227 Uighur individuals, 108 Kazakh individuals, and 89 Han individuals. All subjects in the latter two groups ranged in age from 65 to 70 years, whereas the Uighur subjects comprised two different age groups: those ranging in age from 59 to 70 years and those ranging in age from 90 to 113 years. Within the Uighur group, frequency of the D allele was significantly higher in the group aged >90 than in the group aged <70. The overall distributions of alleles in the three groups did not differ significantly [11773214].
