SR-BI-directed HDL-cholesteryl ester hydrolysis

SR-BI-directed HDL-cholesteryl ester hydrolysis

We have examined the metabolic fate of HDL cholesteryl ester (CE) delivered to cells expressing scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI). Comparison of SR-BI with a related class B scavenger receptor, CD36, showed a greater uptake and a more rapid and extensive hydrolysis of HDL-CE when delivered b...
