Scavenger receptor BI (SR-BI), a putative high density lipoprotein (HDL) receptor, mediates
the selective uptake of HDL cholesteryl ester into cells and is highly expressed in adrenal
gland (Acton, S., Rigotti, A., Landschulz, KT, Xu, S., Hobbs, HH, and Krieger, M.(1996)
Science 271, 518-520). Apolipoprotein AI knock-out (apoA-I0) mice have decreased HDL
cholesterol, depleted adrenal cholesterol stores and impaired corticosteroid synthesis
