ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to biochemical methods for determining reverse cholesterol transport. Specifically, the rates of the two arms of reverse cholesterol transport (HDL or first arm and post-HDL or second arm) are obtained by measuring the flow of unlabeled cholesterol from tissues into plasma HDL and from plasma HDL to bile acids.
