Activation of ATP-Binding Cassette Transporter A1 Transcription by Chromatin Remodeling Complex [PDF]
Objective— Liver X receptor (LXR) regulates the transcription of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) by binding to the DR-4 promoter element as a heterodimer with retinoid X receptor (RXR). The role of chromatin remodeling complex in LXR or ABCA1 activation has not been established previously.

ATP-Binding Cassette Transporter A1 in Lipoprotein Metabolism and Atherosclerosis [PDF]
ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) is a key protein determining high-density lipoprotein (HDL) function. In 1999, it was discovered by 3 independent groups that mutations in the gene for ABCA1 underlie the molecular defect in the HDL deficiency syndrome Tangier disease.

A novel enzyme immunoassay specific for ABCA1 protein quantification in human tissues and cells
ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) mediates the transport of cholesterol and phospholipids from cells to lipid-poor HDL and maintains cellular lipid homeostasis.

Hydrogen Sulfide Up-Regulates the Expression of ATP-Binding Cassette Transporter A1 via Promoting Nuclear Translocation of PPARα. [PDF]
ATP binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) plays a key role in atherogenesis. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a gasotransmitter, has been reported to play an anti-atherosclerotic role. However, the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown.

ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 and HDL metabolism: effects of fatty acids [PDF]
Ample evidence indicates that dietary fatty acids alter the plasma levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). However, the mechanisms underlying the effects of fatty acids still remain elusive. Recent advances in our understanding of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) function and regulation have provided a valuable insight into ...

Regulation of ABCA1 expression and cholesterol efflux during adipose differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells
Adipose cells specialized in energy storage, contain large intracellular triglyceride-rich lipid droplets, are enriched with free cholesterol, and express sterol-regulated transcription factors such as liver X receptor (LXR). The recent identification of
