Cell surface-expressed moesin-like HDL/apoA-I binding protein promotes cholesterol efflux from human macrophages

Cell surface-expressed moesin-like HDL/apoA-I binding protein promotes cholesterol efflux from human macrophages

HDL and its major component, apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), play a central role in reverse cholesterol transport. We recently reported the involvement of a glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor (GPI anchor) in the binding of HDL and apoA-I on human macrophages, and purified an 80 kDa HDL/apoA-I binding...
