Involvement of caveolin-1 in cholesterol enrichment of high density lipoprotein during its assembly by apolipoprotein and THP-1 cells

High density lipoprotein (HDL) is assembled by interaction of apolipoprotein A-I with human monocytic leukemia cell line THP-1 by removing cellular cholesterol and phospholipid. Although the HDL formed with undifferentiated THP-1 cells contained only phosphatidylcholine and almost no cholesterol, th...
