Knut Erik Berge,Hui Tian,Gregory A. Graf,Liqing Yu,Nick V. Grishin,Joshua Schultz,Peter Kwiterovich,Bei Shan,Robert Barnes,Helen H. Hobbs +9 more
TL;DR: Data suggest that ABCG5 and ABCG8 normally cooperate to limit intestinal absorption and to promote biliary excretion of sterols, and that mutated forms of these transporters predispose to sterol accumulation and atherosclerosis.
