| Research Abstract |
Scanenger receptor type B1 (SR-B1) is an unique receptor of HDL which uptake cholesteryl ester from HDL. Therefore, mouse which overexpress SR-B1 mRNA showed low HDL cholesterol concentration. In despite of low HDL cholesterol concentration, mouse which overexpress SR-B1 mRNA showed resistance against atherosclerotic formula diet.
In our study, it was revealed that SR-B1 remodulate the large HDL that were observed in CETP deficient patient into normal HDL particle. And the expression of SR-B1 mRNA of liver was increased according to the amount of bile acid secretion. It may be concluded that SR-B1 may change the atherogenic large HDL into normal anti-atherogenic HDL.
