ABCA1 Overexpression in the Liver of LDLr-KO Mice Leads to Accumulation of Pro-atherogenic Lipoproteins and Enhanced Atherosclerosis

The identification of ABCA1 as a key transporter responsible for cellular lipid efflux has led to considerable interest in defining its role in cholesterol metabolism and atherosclerosis. In this study, the effect of overexpressing ABCA1 in the liver of LDLr-KO mice was investigated. Compared with L...
