Impaired response of biliary lipid secretion to a lithogenic diet in phosphatidylcholine transfer protein-deficient mice

Phosphatidylcholine transfer protein (PC-TP) is a cytosolic lipid transfer protein that is highly expressed in liver and catalyzes intermembrane transfer of phosphatidylcholines in vitro. To explore a role for PC-TP in the hepatocellular trafficking of biliary phosphatidylcholines, we characterized...
