The present invention is to provide an agent for low HDL-cholesterolemia, a prophylactic and/or therapeutic antiarteriosclerosis agent as well as a method for preventing and treating low HDL-cholesterolemia, arteriosclerosis and their related diseases or disorders, with emphasis given to improvement in HDL, without resorting to genetic engineering technology. Further, the present invention is to provide a clinically effective agent for low HDL-cholesterolemia and a prophylactic and/or therapeutic antiarteriosclerosis agent, comprising at least one cysteine protease inhibitor as an active ingredient, thereby increasing a quantity of expressed ABCA1 and elevating blood HDL levels, without using the genetic engineering technology.
