Identifying this process could inform the development of better ways to control
cholesterol accumulation in tumors, potentially leading to improved survival for prostate cancer patients.
Since beta - CDs are currently being tested in humans for the treatment of genetic forms
of cholesterol accumulation (e.g. Nieman - Pick disease), a successful result in this study might mean that the drug combination could then be accelerated for testing in clinical trials for AMD.
Furthermore, translocation of several cholesterogenic enzymes from the endoplasmic reticulum to other cell compartments can occur under various conditions, thereby regulating levels and sites of
intracellular cholesterol accumulation.
found that resveratrol protects the heart from stroke damage,
cholesterol accumulation, and improves blood circulation and overall vascular health.
