HDL (2 mg/mL) and rSOF (1 µg/mL) were incubated for various times and then efflux to the incubation mixtures containing HDL (50 µg/mL) was determined. These data show that increased time of preincubation of HDL with rSOF increases the rates at which the products accept cellular cholesterol. 3 [ H ] C h o le s te r o l, c p m CERM H D L + neo H D L 180 160 140 120 100 80 60 40 neo H D L 20 0 15 20 25 30 35 l u ti o n V o l u m e , m L Supplementary Figure 2:1: ESEC profiles of media after incubation of THP-1 macrophages with HDL (2 mg/mL) that had been treated for various times with rSOF (1 µg/mL). white circles, 1 h; gray circles, 2 h; black circles, 3 h. The upper two figures are offset from the abscissa for better viewing. These data show that increasing the time of pre incubation of rSOF with HDL increases the efflux of cholesterol to CERM and neo HDL.
