In rodents scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) is a key molecule for selective uptake of cholesteryl ester from high-density lipoprotein (HDL). This study was aimed to clarify the role of the human SR-BI/CD36 and LIMP-II Analogues-1 (CLA-1) as a molecular target of selective uptake of cholesteryl ester from HDL in vivo.
