Evidence for multiple complementary pathways for efficient cholesterol absorption in mice

Apolipoprotein B (apoB)-dependent and apoB-independent pathways for cholesterol transport have been described in cultured cells. Here, we show that the apoB-independent pathway involves apoA-I-containing high density lipoproteins (HDLs). Cholesterol secretion by the HDLs, but not by the apoB pathway...
