Phosphatidylcholine Metabolism and ACAT Affect the Trafficking of LDL-derived Free Cholesterol in Cholesterol-loaded CHO Cells

In vitro studies have shown that the major membrane phospholipid phosphatidylcholine (PC) can positively influence the incorporation of cholesterol in lipid membranes. The influence of PC on the cellular trafficking of LDL-derived free cholesterol was investigated. Sterol regulatory-defective (SRD)-...
