Bilirubin Decreases Macrophage Cholesterol Efflux and ATP-Binding Cassette Transporter A1 Protein Expression. [PDF]
Background Mild but chronically elevated circulating unconjugated bilirubin is associated with reduced total and low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration, which is associated with reduced cardiovascular disease risk.

Up-regulation of the ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 inhibits hepatitis C virus infection. [PDF]
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) establishes infection using host lipid metabolism pathways that are thus considered potential targets for indirect anti-HCV strategies.

ABCA1 is an extracellular phospholipid translocase
ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) drives phospholipid (PL) from the plasma membrane into extracellular apolipoprotein A-I, for the production of high density lipoprotein (HDL).

Functional characterization of genetic variants affecting the intracellular domains of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1). [PDF]
The ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) effluxes cellular cholesterol and phospholipids to extracellular acceptors, mainly apolipoprotein A1, generating high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles.

Serum amyloid A (SAA) is an amphiphilic helical protein that is found associated with plasma HDL in various pathological conditions, such as acute or chronic inflammation. Cellular lipid release and generation of HDL by this protein were investigated, in

Abnormal amyloid beta (Aβ) clearance is a distinctive pathological mechanism for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1), which mediates the lipidation of apolipoprotein E, plays a critical role in Aβ clearance.

Recent developments in lipid metabolism have shown the importance of ATP binding cassette transporters (ABCs) in controlling cellular and total body lipid homeostasis. ABCA1 mediates the transport of cholesterol and phospholipids from cells to lipid-poor

Heterogeneity of high density lipoprotein generated by ABCA1 and ABCA7
The assembly of HDL by helical apolipoprotein and cellular lipid was studied using HEK293 cells to which ecdysone-inducible human ABCA1 or human ABCA7 was transfected.
