Alterations of plasma lipids in mice via adenoviral-mediated hepatic overexpression of human ABCA1

Alterations of plasma lipids in mice via adenoviral-mediated hepatic overexpression of human ABCA1

ATP binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) is a widely expressed lipid transporter essential for the generation of HDL. ABCA1 is particularly abundant in the liver, suggesting that the liver may play a major role in HDL homeostasis. To determine how hepatic ABCA1 affects plasma HDL cholesterol leve...
