Pharmacological inhibition of ABCA1 degradation increases HDL biogenesis and exhibits antiatherogenesis[S]

Expression of ABCA1 is regulated by transcription of the gene and calpain-mediated proteolytic degradation, and inhibition ABCA1 degradation results in increased ABCA1 and HDL biogenesis in vitro. We examined whether this approach could be a potential antiatherogenic treatment. Although probucol inh...
