Transport of cholesterol

Physiological Reviews, 1983
.ur current model for cholesterol transport is summarized in Figure 10. In this figure we have put together the various steps in cholesterol transport that were described previously in this review. Under normal conditions, cholesterol metabolism and transport are well regulated.

Cholesterol and atherosc lerosis

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Medicine, 1997
AbstractCholesterol is an essential component of cellular membranes, but when present in excess in the circulation, can be deposited in the arterial wall, leading to the formation of atherosclerotic lesions. The principal plasma carrier of cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LDL), is removed from the circulation by LDL receptors in the liver.

The Journal of Membrane Biology, 2004
Cholesterol plays a variety of significant roles in biological systems. However, the mechanisms by which cholesterol functions remain largely unclear. The enantiomer of cholesterol (ent-cholesterol)--which has identical physical properties, but opposite three-dimensional configuration compared to cholesterol--is a unique tool that can be used to better

Cholesterol gallstones

Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2002
Cholesterol cholelithiasis is common in Western populations and represents a consequence of altered cholesterol homeostasis. Gallstones form because of a complex and incompletely understood series of metabolic and physicochemical events that promote cholesterol crystallization in bile.
