The current understanding of cholesterol transport has moved from a largely descriptive science into the molecular stage. Intracellular Cholesterol Trafficking reports on the current state of research and features sections on:
The Regulation of ACAT and Intracellular Cholesterol Level
Niemann-Pick Type C Disease
Cholesterol Transport in Specialized Cells
Sterol Carrier Protein-2 and Cholesterol Transport Proteins
Caveolae and Caveolin
Summary and Future Perspectives .
Intracellular Cholesterol Trafficking is sure to appeal to cell biologists, biochemists, endocrinologists, hepatologists, and atherosclerosis researchers.

`This book will be of undoubted value to those actively engaged in research on cholesterol transport. It would be a useful addition to most science libraries to allow consultation by those who wish greater knowledge on the topic but are not prepared to bear the cost of a personal copy.' James B.M. Rattray in Inform, 11 (2000)
