Characterization of the LDL receptor in rat promegakaryoblasts in culture.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Rat promegakaryoblasts (RPM, a precursor platelet cell line) in culture exhibited a capacity to bind, take up and degrade 125I-LDL. The low density lipoprotein (LDL) binding showed the following characteristics: (a) high affinity, (b) saturability, (c) specificity, (d) down-regulation, after exposure to 25 hydroxycholesterol. Furthermore the proteolytic degradation of 125I-LDL by RPMs was inhibited by chloroquine which interferes with the lysosomal degradation processes. These findings show LDL receptor cell biology of RPM to be of the classical type and to differ from that of platelets.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of aerobic training and consumption of L-carnitine supplements on HMG-CoA reductase and low density lipoprotein receptor (LDL-R) in the liver of male Wistar rats toxicated by boldenone. Materials and methods: In this clinical study, 30 male Wistar rats aged 12 weeks (weight 195±7.94g) were randomly divided into five groups: cont...
متن کاملVitamin D3 Induces Gene Expression of Ox-LDL Scavenger Receptors in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rat Aortas: New Insight into the Role of Vitamin D in Diabetic Atherosclerosis
Background: Several lines of evidence suggest that oxidized LDL (Ox-LDL) scavenger receptors play a crucial role in the genesis and progression of diabetic atherosclerosis. This study aimed to elucidate the effect of vitamin D3 on gene expression of lectin-like oxidized LDL receptor-1 (LOX-1), scavenger receptor-A (SR-A), Cluster of Differentiation 36 (CD36), and Cluster of Differentiation 68 (...
متن کاملEffect of Ubiquinol-10 on the Affinity of LDL to Its Receptor: A Model for Prevention of Atherogenesis
The affinity of low density lipoprotein(LDL) to its receptor is very important, because most of LDL-uptake pathway is done by the LDL receptor and the change in size of LDL particle and the modification in its components may affect the LDL affinity for its receptor. In this study, the effects of a powerful lipid-soluble antioxidant “ubiquinol-10” have been investigated on the affinity of LDL to...
