Lysosomal Acid Lipase Hydrolyzes Retinyl Ester and Affects Retinoid Turnover*
Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) is essential for the clearance of endocytosed cholesteryl ester and triglyceride-rich chylomicron remnants. Humans and mice with defective or absent LAL activity accumulate large amounts of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides in multiple tissues. Although chylomicrons al...
