1 16518588 We examined expression of the following: (1) Niemann-Pick C1-like 1 (NPC1L1), which regulates cholesterol absorption; (2) ATP-binding cassette transporters G5 and G8 (ABCG5, ABCG8), which regulate cholesterol homeostasis through their ability to excrete enterocyte cholesterol back into the lumen of the intestine; and (3) microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTTP), which packages the chylomicron particle by assembling cholesterol, triglyceride, phospholipids and apolipoprotein B48.
2 17109865 In diabetic animals, HMGCoA reductase, MTTP and NPC1L1 mRNA were significantly elevated (p<0.02) and ABCG5 and ABCG8 were significantly reduced (p<0.02) in the liver.
