We are also studying how apoAI can become dysfunctional so that it can no longer participate in reverse cholesterol transport. (lerner.ccf.org)
We plan to apply two recently developed approaches to investigate the distribution and molecular mechanisms of cholesterol transport in C. elegans. (dresden-ipp.de)
An effect of walnuts on ex vivo cholesterol efflux was observed with whole serum but not apoB - depleted serum; in addition to HDL, LDL can serve as an acceptor of free cholesterol in the reverse cholesterol transport pathway (39), indicating that walnuts may have a greater effect on global cholesterol efflux than HDL - specific efflux.
