In humans, high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol ester turnover exceeds that of HDL apoproteins by severalfold or more, suggesting an independent catabolic fate of these constituents. The present study investigated the cellular uptake and dissociation of HDL labeled in its apoproteins with

Cholesterol undergoes esterification to improve transport. Cholesterol esters are more easily packaged into the interior of lipoproteins - increasing the quantity that can be readily transported in the blood stream.
