Mitogenic stimulation alters the regulation of LDL receptor gene expression in human lymphocytes.
To address the possibility that influences other than ambient cholesterol concentrations regulate low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor expression, the effect of mitogenic activation on the levels of LDL receptor mRNA in human lymphocytes was examined ...

Measurement of total hepatic low density lipoprotein receptor levels in the hamster.
The ability to measure the total concentration of low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors in hepatic tissues is of crucial importance to understanding changes in hepatic cholesterol metabolism.

The peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor γ (PPARγ) is a nuclear receptor that regulates fat-cell development and glucose homeostasis and is the molecular target of a class of insulin-sensitizing agents used for the management of type 2 diabetes ...

Thyroid hormone reduces cholesterol via a non-LDL receptor-mediated pathway.
Although studies in vitro and in hypothyroid animals show that thyroid hormone can, under some circumstances, modulate the actions of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors, the mechanisms responsible for thyroid hormone's lipid-lowering effects are not

Endocytosis of the ASGP receptor H1 is reduced by mutation of tyrosine-5 but still occurs via coated pits [PDF]
The clustering of plasma membrane receptors in clathrin-coated pits depends on determinants within their cytoplasmic domains. In several cases, individual tyrosine residues were shown to be necessary for rapid internalization.

Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors are overexpressed in most neoplastic cell lines and provide a mechanism for the internalization and concentration of drug-laden nanoemulsions that bind to these receptors.

Reduction of circulating cholesterol and apolipoprotein levels during sepsis [PDF]
Sepsis with multiple organ failure is frequently associated with a substantial decrease of cholesterol levels. This decrease of cholesterol is strongly associated with mortality suggesting a direct relation between inflammatory conditions and altered ...

Atherosclerotic lesions contain oxidized LDL (OxLDL), immunoglobulins, and immune-competent cells. Low levels of circulating autoantibodies against malondialdehyde (MDA)-modified lysine, an epitope of OxLDL, occur in several species, and immune complexes

Competitive uptake of porphyrin and LDL via the LDL receptor in glioma cell lines: flow cytometric analysis [PDF]
We examined the simultaneous uptake of porphyrin and (LDL) by four established cell lines of glioma and normal ®broblastsusing ¯ow cytometry (FCM). The results indicated porphyrin and LDL showed competitive conjugation with the LDL receptor.These results
