Abstract excerpt
The pharmacological agent U18666A (3-beta-[2-(diethylamino)ethoxy]androst-5-en-17-one inhibits the intracellular transport of low density lipoprotein (LDL)-derived cholesterol in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. LDL-derived cholesterol accumulates in the lysosomes of U18666A-treated cells causing delayed LDL-mediated regulation of cellular cholesterol metabolism and impaired movement of LDL-derived cholesterol...
