Fluorescence image screening for chemical compounds modifying cholesterol metabolism and distribution[S]

An automated fluorescence microscopy assay using a nontoxic cholesterol binding protein, θ toxin domain 4, (D4), was developed in order to identify chemical compounds modifying intracellular cholesterol metabolism and distribution. Using this method, we screened a library of 1,056 compounds and iden...
