    Abstract:

    Cholesterol efflux is indispensable for maintaining the structure and function of cells, while it's function in regulating angiogenesis is not clear still. Recently an issue published on Nature(2013,498:118-122) by researchers from Department of Medicine, University of California, USA found that apoA-Ⅰ binding protein (AIBP) can mediate cholesterol efflux and plays a key role in the control of angiogenesis. Based on the ex vivo aortic ring of mice and zebrafish, the researchers have found that AIBP together with HDL can facilitate cholesterol efflux so as to inhibit angiogenesis induced by vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF).
