Exchange and mass efflux of cholesterol in macrophages. Evidence for a common mechanism and a role for plasma membrane proteins.
Exchange and net mass efflux of cholesterol were investigated in [3H]cholesterol-labeled or cholesteryl ester-loaded murine peritoneal macrophages, respectively. Macrophages were subjected to mild proteolysis prior to measurements of mass efflux or exchange to assess whether plasma membrane proteins...
