ABCG5 ABCG8-independent mechanisms fail to maintain sterol balance in mice fed a high cholesterol diet
2025-02-15
Abstract excerpt
The ABCG5 ABCG8 (G5G8) sterol transporter opposes the accumulation of dietary xenosterols, but is also the primary mediator of biliary cholesterol secretion in the cholesterol elimination pathway. In humans and in mouse models of disrupted biliary cholesterol secretion, fecal neutral sterols remain constant, indicating the presence of a G5G8-independent mechanism for cholesterol excretion. Transintestinal choleste...
