Comparison of the intracellular metabolism and trafficking of 25-hydroxycholesterol and cholesterol in macrophages

Oxysterols arising from the diet or through lipid peroxidation may be important in the modulation of cellular cholesterol metabolism. In this study, the metabolism of one of the oxysterols, 25-hydroxycholesterol (25OHC), was examined in J774 and mouse peritoneal macrophages. Uptake of 25OHC from ser...
