... that only cholesteryl ester increases the cell association of the recombinant particles. These results show that the cholesteryl ester content of HDL may play an important role in the re-absorptive salvage of HDL by the proximal tubule cells of the kidney. 1 To whom correspondence should be addressed...

... sequestering cholesteryl esters from high-density lipoproteins (HDLs). Less clear is the role of SR-BII, a splice variant of the SR-B gene that differs only in the C-terminal cytoplasmic domain. Here, we identify several putative signalling motifs in the C-terminus of human SR-BII, which are absent from SR-BI...

... is targeted. Key words: apolipoprotein B, cholesterol, cholesteryl ester, triacylglycerol. There is considerable evidence to suggest that the influence of dietary nfi3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on plasma triacyl- glycerol levels is caused by the suppression of VLDL secretion by the liver [3,14], an effect...
