Regulation of Low Density Lipoprotein Receptors
Membranes prepared from the adrenal gland of mice and rats possess high affinity binding sites that recognize '261-labeled human low density lipoprotein (LDL). These binding sites resemble the functional LDL receptors that mediate the uptake of LDL by cultured mouse and bovine adrenal cells. The number of LDL binding sites per mg of membrane protein increased 2to 5-fold over 24 h when mice or r...
متن کاملLow-density-lipoprotein receptors in different rabbit liver cells.
Receptor-dependent uptake mechanisms for low-density lipoprotein (LDL) were studied in rabbit liver parenchymal and non-parenchymal cells. Hybridization studies with a cDNA probe revealed that mRNA for the apo (apolipoprotein) B,E receptor was present in endothelial and Kupffer cells as well as in parenchymal cells. By ligand-blotting experiments we showed that apo B,E-receptor protein was pres...
متن کاملLow density lipoprotein kinetics in a family having defective low density lipoprotein receptors in which hypercholesterolemia is suppressed.
Heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) usually presents with severe elevations of low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. Recently, a family with FH was described in which several members heterozygous for a mutation in the LDL receptor gene had normal LDL cholesterol levels. Kinetic studies of LDL apolipoprotein B (apo B) were conducted to determine the metabolic differences between...
متن کاملVery low-density lipoprotein (VLDL)-induced signals mediating aldosterone production.
Aldosterone, secreted by the adrenal zona glomerulosa, enhances sodium retention, thus increasing blood volume and pressure. Excessive production of aldosterone results in high blood pressure and contributes to cardiovascular and renal disease, stroke and visual loss. Hypertension is also associated with obesity, which is correlated with other serious health risks as well. Although weight gain ...
متن کاملEffect of Lycopene on Formation of Low Density Lipoprotein-Copper Complex in Copper Catalyzed Peroxidation of Low Density Lipoprotein, as in vitro Experiment
Background: A great deal of evidence has indicated that oxidatively modified LDL plays a critical role in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. Antioxidants that can prevent LDL oxidation may act as antiatherogens. Copper is a candidate for oxidizing LDL in atherosclerotic lesions. The binding of copper ions to LDL is usually thought to be a prerequisite for LDL oxidation by copper...
