Triglyceride depletion in THP-1 cells alters cholesteryl ester physical state and cholesterol efflux
To study macrophage lipid droplet composition and the effects of TG on cholesteryl ester (CE) physical state, hydrolysis, and cholesterol efflux, a technique was developed to remove the majority of accumulated TG with minimal effect on CE content. THP-1 macrophages were incubated with acetylated LDL...
