Figure 26-21 Reverse cholesterol transport pathway. HDl High-density lipoproteins LDL, low-density lipoproteins tDL, intermediate-density lipoproteins HTL, hepatic lipoprotein lipase LCAT, lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase CETP, cholesteryl ester transfer protein apo E, apoiipoprotein E. Cholesterol is removed from macrophages and other arterial wall cells by an HDL-mediated process. The LCAT esterifies the cholesterol content of HDL to prevent it from reentering the ceils. Cholesterol esters are delivered to the liver by one of three pathways ( ) cholesterol esters are transferred from HDL to LDL by CETP and enter the liver through the specific LDL receptor pathway (2) cholesterol esters are selectively taken from HDL by HDL receptors and HDL particles are returned to circulation for further transport or (3) HDL have accumulated apo E and therefore the particles can enter the liver through remnant receptors, (From Gwynne JT.
