Insulin increases cholesterol uptake, lipid droplet content, and apolipoprotein B secretion in CaCo‐2 cells by upregulating SR‐BI via a PI3K, AKT, and mTOR‐dependent pathway

Abstract

insulin promotes cholesterol uptake, intracellular lipid store, and apo B-containing lipoproteins secretion by SR-BI-dependent mechanisms in a model of human intestinal epithelium.
