Descrição

Descrição geral

Reverse Cholesterol Transport (RCT) is the mechanism by which the peripheral lipid burden is reduced by transport to liver and its fecal excretion. The first important step in RCT is the cholesterol efflux from macrophage-derived foam cells present in atherosclerotic plaques. The cholesterol efflux is critical for the maintenance of net cholesterol balance in arterial walls and in the reduction of proinflammatory responses triggered by lipid-laden macrophages.

Aplicação

Cholesterol Efflux Assay Kit has been used in cholesterol efflux assay.

Características e benefícios

Compatible with high-throughput handling systems.

Adequação

Suitable for the determination of cholesterol efflux in cells.

Princípio

The Cholesterol Efflux Assay Kit is a high-throughput screening assay that measures cholesterol efflux in cells using fluorescent-labeled cholesterol (λ_Ex = 482 nm/ λ_Em = 515 nm). It is suitable for serum, isolated, or recombinant lipoprotein samples. It may also be used to screen small molecules for their effect on cholesterol efflux and therefore, may be a valuable tool in drug discovery programs.
