Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Reverse cholesterol transport is the process by which excess cholesterol is removed from peripheral tissues and transported back to the liver for processing and excretion. HDLs (high-density lipoproteins) are responsible for this process, as they collect excess cholesterol from cells and transport it to the liver for processing and excretion. Chylomicrons, LDLs, and VLDLs are not directly involved in reverse cholesterol transport.
