ABCA1 (ATP-binding cassette sub-family A (ABC1) member 1) is one of the most important cellular cholesterol transporters in charge of removing cholesterol from the body through cholesterol efflux. Mutations of this gene have been associated with high-density-lipoprotein (HDL) deficiency, Tangier disease and familial hypoalphalipoproteinemia.
In Chinese overweight and obese patients, the expression of ABCA1 in monocytes [...]
