An overview of reverse cholesterol transport.

European heart journal - 1 Feb 1998

Tall A R

Abstract excerpt

Reverse cholesterol transport is a multi-step process resulting in the net movement of cholesterol from peripheral tissues back to the liver via the plasma compartment. Cellular cholesterol efflux is mediated by HDL, acting in conjunction with the cholesterol esterifying enzyme, lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase. Cholesteryl ester accumulating in HDL can then follow a number of different fates: uptake in the...
