Hydrolysis and excretion of cytoplasmic cholesteryl esters by macrophages: stimulation by high density lipoprotein and other agents
The ability of mouse peritoneal macrophages to hydrolyze and excrete cytoplasmic cholesteryl ester droplets was studied. The macrophages were loaded with cholesteryl esters by incubation with acetylated low density lipoprotein (acetyl-LDL), which is internalized by adsorptive endocytosis. The choles...
