Cholesterol is essential for the growth and function of all mammalian cells, but abnormally increased blood cholesterol is a major risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters G5 (ABCG5) and G8 (ABCG8) form an obligate heterodimer that limits intestinal absorption and facilitates biliary secretion of cholesterol and phytosterols. Consistent with their...
Increased expression of catalytically inactive hepatic lipase (ciHL) lowers remnants and low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and may reduce atherosclerosis in mice lacking both LDLreceptors (LDLR) and murine (m) HL. However, in a previous study, ciHL expression failed to reduce atherosclerosis but increased liver fat accumulation after a 3-month high-fat diet, suggesting that diet-induced metabolic changes...
