1 In fibroblasts from affected subjects, oxysterol stimulation resulted in increased ABCA1 protein expression and normalized their defective phospholipid efflux defect. Oxysterols ATP binding cassette subfamily A member 1 Homo sapiens
2 The defect in phospholipid efflux is due to defective ABCA1 protein regulation and can be corrected by treatment with physiological oxysterols, a current therapeutic target of interest, that may, with further studies, be used to raise HDL levels in patients with severe HDL deficiencies. Oxysterols ATP binding cassette subfamily A member 1 Homo sapiens
