Targeted Deletion of Adipocyte Abca1 (ATP-Binding Cassette Transporter A1) Impairs Diet-Induced Obesity. [PDF]
Objective— Adipose tissue cholesterol increases with adipocyte triglyceride content and size during development of obesity. However, how adipocyte cholesterol affects adipocyte function is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of the cellular cholesterol exporter, Abca1 (ATP-binding cassette ...

Depletion of Pre-β-high Density Lipoprotein by Human Chymase Impairs ATP-binding Cassette Transporter A1- but Not Scavenger Receptor Class B Type I-mediated Lipid Efflux to High Density Lipoprotein [PDF]
The ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) mediates the efflux of cellular unesterified cholesterol and phospholipid to lipid-poor apolipoprotein A-I.

Effects of Apolipoprotein A-I on ATP-binding Cassette Transporter A1-mediated Efflux of Macrophage Phospholipid and Cholesterol [PDF]
The mechanism of formation of high density lipoprotein (HDL) particles by the action of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) is not defined completely. To address this issue, we monitored efflux to apoA-I of phosphatidylcholine (PC), sphingomyelin

ATP-binding Cassette Transporter A1 Mediates Cellular Secretion of α-Tocopherol* [PDF]
α-Tocopherol (α-TOH) is associated with plasma lipoproteins and accumulates in cell membranes throughout the body, suggesting that lipoproteins play a role in transporting α-TOH between tissues. Here we show that secretion of α-TOH from cultured cells is

A novel function of apolipoprotein E: upregulation of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 expression. [PDF]
Despite the well known importance of apolipoprotein (Apo) E in cholesterol efflux, the effect of ApoE on the expression of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) has never been investigated. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of
