ABCA7 expression is regulated by cellular cholesterol through the SREBP2 pathway and associated with phagocytosis

ABCA7 is highly homologous to ABCA1 and mediates cellular cholesterol and phospholipid release by apolipoproteins when transfected in vitro. However, expression of ABCA7 was downregulated by increased cellular cholesterol while ABCA1 was upregulated, and the results were consistent by forced express...
