New horizons for lipoprotein receptors: communication by β-propellers
The lipoprotein receptor (LR) family constitutes a large group of structurally closely related receptors with broad ligand-binding specificity. Traditionally, ligand binding to LRs has been anticipated to involve merely the complement type repeat (CR ...

Low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP) belongs to the low-density lipoprotein receptor family, generally recognized as cell surface endocytic receptors, which bind and internalize extracellular ligands for degradation in lysosomes ...

Cell-associated heparin-like molecules modulate the ability of LDL to regulate PCSK9 uptake[S]
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) targets the LDL receptor (LDLR) for degradation, increasing plasma LDL and, consequently, cardiovascular risk.

The very low density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR), low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), and low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP) are the three main apolipoprotein E-recognizing endocytic receptors involved in the clearance of ...

Regulation of macrophage apoE secretion and sterol efflux by the LDL receptor
Factors that regulate apolipoprotein E (apoE) secretion by macrophages will have important effects on vessel wall lipid flux and atherosclerosis. Macrophages express the LDL receptor, which binds apoE with high affinity and could thereby affect the net ...

The role of dimerisation in the cellular trafficking of G-protein-coupled receptors [PDF]
The concept that G-protein-coupled receptors can exist as homomeric and/or heteromeric complexes is now well established. Despite this, how dynamic such interactions are and if this may be modulated during receptor trafficking remain topics of debate ...

Characterization of lipoprotein receptors on rat Fu5AH hepatoma cells.
The rat hepatoma cell line Fu5AH has the unusual property of accumulating massive amounts of cholesteryl ester upon incubation with hypercholesterolemic serum, and especially when incubated with beta-very low density lipoproteins (beta-VLDL) from ...
