nicotinic acid and derivatives. Cholesterol is absorbed from the intestine and transported to the liver by chylomicron. The quantity of cholesterol transported from the liver to peripheral tissues greatly exceeds its catabolism there and mechanisms exist to return cholesterol to the liver. Through this 'reverse transport', cholesterol is carried by high-density lipoprotein (HDL) from peripheral cells to the liver where...
