Scavenger receptor class B type I is solely responsible for the selective uptake of cholesteryl esters from HDL by the liver and the adrenals in mice

Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) has been identified as a functional HDL binding protein that can mediate the selective uptake of cholesteryl ester (CE) from HDL. To quantify the in vivo role of SR-BI in the process of selective uptake, HDL was labeled with cholesteryl ether ([3H] CEt-HDL)...
