Cell density can affect cholesteryl ester accumulation in the human THP-1 macrophage.
Esterified cholesterol (EC) accumulation was induced in THP-1 macrophages after exposure to acetylated LDL (acLDL), and the extent of accumulation was dependent on cell density. EC mass was 5-fold greater in cells plated at 1.0 x 10(6) cells/35 mm dish compared to cells plated at density 4.0 x 10(6)...
