Macrophage cholesterol efflux and the active domains of serum amyloid A 2.1
Serum amyloid A 2.1 (SAA2.1) suppresses ACAT and stimulates cholesteryl ester hydrolase (CEH) activities in cholesterol-laden macrophages, and in the presence of a cholesterol transporter and an extracellular acceptor, there is a marked increase in the rate of cholesterol export in culture and in vi...
