Chalcone Derivatives Enhance ATP-Binding Cassette Transporters A1 in Human THP-1 Macrophages
Atherosclerosis is a process of imbalanced lipid metabolism in the vascular walls. The underlying pathology mainly involves the deposition of oxidized lipids in the endothelium and the accumulation of cholesterol in macrophages. Macrophages export excessive cholesterol (cholesterol efflux) through A...
