Intracellular Cholesterol Trafficking

The current understanding of cholesterol transport has moved from a largely descriptive science into the molecular stage. Intracellular Cholesterol Trafficking reports on the current state of research and features sections on:
The Regulation of ACAT and Intracellular Cholesterol Level
Niemann-Pick Type C Disease
Cholesterol Transport in Specialized Cells
Sterol Carrier Protein-2 and Cholesterol Transport Proteins
Caveolae and Caveolin
Summary and Future Perspectives .
Intracellular Cholesterol Trafficking is sure to appeal to cell biologists, biochemists, endocrinologists, hepatologists, and atherosclerosis researchers.
