Identification of lipoprotein-binding proteins in rat liver Golgi apparatus membranes
The low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor has been shown to be a plasma membrane glycoprotein responsible for the cellular binding and endocytosis of plasma lipoproteins.

The macrophage scavenger receptor at 30 years of age: current knowledge and future challenges
It is now thirty years since the original observation that macrophages take up and degrade modified forms of low density lipoprotein (LDL). Molecular cloning has identified multiple scavenger receptors that can endocytose modified LDL and binding studies

Development of a hamster model of spontaneous hypertriglyceridemia in diabetes
Hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) often accompanies diabetes and is considered a risk factor for diabetic vascular complications. However, inducing diabetic HTG typically requires high‐fat diets in certain animal models.

ABSTRACT The subfamily Gomphrenoideae is composed of about 480 accepted species, many of which have been historically used as medicinal plants, reason why they have been studied in terms of chemical profile, biological activity, and safety. This review consolidates the advances in research on this subfamily over the past 47 years, emphasizing its ...

Lipid Metabolism and Immune Function: Chemical Tools for Insights into T‐Cell Biology
This review explores how lipids regulate immune responses, particularly in T‐cell function. Advances in metabolomics and proteomics provide insights into lipid‐mediated immunity. Fluorescent lipids enable single‐cell analysis of lipid uptake and metabolism.

Effects of lipoprotein lipase and statins on cholesterol uptake into heart and skeletal muscles⃞
Regulation of cholesterol metabolism in cultured cells and in the liver is dependent on actions of the LDL receptor. However, nonhepatic tissues have multiple pathways of cholesterol uptake.

ABSTRACT Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a well‐known risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery diseases (CAD). Complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) such as PCI for bifurcation lesions often yields poor outcomes, especially in DM patients.

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.
