Compositions and methods are provided for modulating serum cholesterol in a subject mammal. In one aspect, the invention features novel anti-lipemic drugs that include at least one identified effector of the Low Density Liproprotein (LDL) receptor and at least one identified serum cholesterol inhibitor. In a particular aspect, the drugs include one identified sphingolipid or protein modifying same linked to one identified serum cholesterol inhibitor. Additionally provided are methods for identifying anti-lipemic drugs capable of modulating the LDL receptor and specifically SREBP-1 maturation, including assays designed to identify pharmacoligical drugs capable of stabilizing or reducing serum cholesterol levels in a mammal and particularly a human patient.

L'invention concerne des compositions et des procédés pour moduler le cholestérol sérique chez un sujet mammifère. Dans l'un des aspects, l'invention concerne de nouveaux médicaments antilipémiques qui comprennent au moins un effecteur du récepteur de la lipoprotéine de basse densité (LDL) et au moins un inhibiteur identifié du cholestérol sérique. Dans un aspect particulier, les médicaments comprennent un sphingolipide ou une protéine identifiés qui le modifient et qui sont liés à un inhibiteur identifié du cholestérol sérique. En outre, l'invention concerne des procédés pour identifier des médicaments antilipémiques capables de moduler le récepteur de LDL et notamment la maturation de SREBP-1, y compris des dosages destinés à identifier des médicaments pharmacologiques capables de stabiliser ou de réduire le taux de cholestérol sérique chez un sujet mammifère et notamment chez un patient humain.
