Gold-low density lipoprotein (LDL) conjugates were used to detect the LDL receptor on nitrocellulose paper. Solubilized rat liver membrane proteins were subjected to electrophoresis and electroblotted onto nitrocellulose paper.

The beta-VLDL receptor pathway of murine P388D1 macrophages.
Very low density lipoproteins Sf 100-400 (VLDL1) from hypertriglyceridemic (HTG) subjects and chylomicrons cause receptor-mediated lipid engorgement in unstimulated macrophages in vitro via the beta-VLDL receptor pathway.

Scavenger receptor-mediated uptake of oxidized LDL (oxLDL) is thought to be the major mechanism of foam cell generation in atherosclerotic lesions. Recent data has indicated that native LDL is also capable of contributing to foam cell formation via low ...

Several potentially atherogenic LDL subfractions present low affinity for the LDL receptor, which result in impaired plasma clearance. Electronegative LDL [LDL(−)] is one of these minor subfractions and the molecular basis for its reduced receptor ...

We previously carried out genetic and metabolic studies in a partially inbred herd of pigs carrying cholesterol-elevating mutations. Quantitative pedigree analysis indicated that apolipoprotein (apo)B and a second major gene were responsible for the ...

Regulatory effects of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on hepatic LDL uptake in the hamster and rat.
These studies were undertaken to investigate the mechanisms involved in the regulation of hepatic low density lipoprotein (LDL) transport by n-3 fatty acids in the hamster and rat. Animals were fed n-3 or n-6 fatty acids with a cholesterol-free, very-low-

Large triglyceride-rich very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) Sf 60-400 from hypertriglyceridemic (HTG) patients, but not VLDL from normal subjects, bind to the LDL receptor of human skin fibroblasts because they contain apolipoprotein E (apoE) of the ...

Apolipoprotein E (apoE) associates with lipoproteins and mediates their interaction with members of the LDL receptor family. ApoE exists as three common isoforms that have important distinct functional and biological properties.

Foam cells in atherosclerotic lesions are derived not only from blood monocytes but also from smooth muscle cells (SMC). To better understand the mechanisms by which SMC may become lipid-laden, we have studied the catabolism by cultured rabbit aortic SMC

Protein kinase C activation stabilizes LDL receptor mRNA via the JNK pathway in HepG2 cells*[S]
LDL is the most abundant cholesterol transport vehicle in plasma and a major prognostic indicator of atherosclerosis. Hepatic LDL receptors limit circulating LDL levels, since cholesterol internalized by the liver can be excreted.
