Drug Blocks Cholesterol Absorption from the Diet: Study
Therefore there is an urgent need for more cholesterol uptake inhibitory drugs. Our work provides the molecular basis for developing additional cholesterol absorption inhibitors.
"Moreover, the cell-based assay that we have established can potentially be used to screen for novel inhibitors of NPC1L1 endocytosis, which will block cholesterol uptake eventually," Song added.
The study appears in June issue of Cell Metabolism, a Cell Press publication.
