Hydroxycholesterols 39-57 NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Homo sapiens 68-73 17989073-5 2008 Unexpectedly, we encountered NPC1 in a search for a membrane protein that binds 25-hydroxycholesterol (25-HC) and other oxysterols. Hydroxycholesterols 83-101 NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Homo sapiens 29-33 1543723-5 1992 In contrast, cholesterol esterification in NPD fibroblasts increased slowly during the first 6-12 h and reached 50% of normal values by 24 h. 25-Hydroxycholesterol, a non-lipoprotein stimulator of cholesterol esterification, caused a similar stimulation of cholesterol esterification in NPC, NPD and normal cells.
