Abstract
The high density lipoprotein (HDL) receptor, scavenger receptor class B, type I (SR-BI), mediates selective cholesteryl ester uptake from lipoproteins into liver and steroidogenic tissues but also cholesterol efflux from macrophages to HDL. Recently, we demonstrated the uptake of HDL particles in SR-BI overexpressing Chinese hamster ovarian cells (ldlA7-SRBI) using ultrasensitive microscopy. In this study we show that this uptake of entire HDL particles is followed by resecretion. After uptake, HDL is localized in endocytic vesicles and organelles en route to the perinuclear area; many HDL-positive compartments were classified as multivesiculated and multilamellated organelles by electron microscopy. By using 125I-labeled HDL, we found that approximately 0.8% of the HDL added to the media is taken up by the ldlA7-SRBI cells within 1 h, and almost all HDL is finally resecreted. 125I-Labeled low density lipoprotein showed a very similar association, uptake, and resecretion pattern in ldlA7-SRBI cells that do not express any low density lipoprotein receptor. Moreover, we demonstrate that the process of HDL cell association, uptake, and resecretion occurs in three physiologically relevant cell systems, the liver cell line HepG2, the adrenal cell line Y1BS1, and phorbol myristate acetate-differentiated THP-1 cells as a model for macrophages. Finally, we present evidence that HDL retroendocytosis represents one of the pathways for cholesterol efflux.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
