Hepatic SR-BI-mediated cholesteryl ester selective uptake occurs with unaltered efficiency in the absence of cellular energy

Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) plays a critical role in the delivery of HDL cholesterol and cholesteryl esters (CEs) to liver and steroidogenic tissues by a selective process that does not result in significant degradation of HDL protein. Recently, SR-BI-mediated endocytosis and recycling...
