These data demonstrate that i) increased flux of cholesterol from HDL into the liver via SR-BI as a result of phospholipase modification of the HDL particle translates neither into increased biliary and fecal sterol output nor into increased gallstone formation, and ii) increased sPLA2 expression in patients with cholesterol gallstones might be a consequence rather than the underlying cause of the disease.
