Abstract

The low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP) from rat liver membranes binds apoprotein E (apoE)-enriched rabbit beta-migrating very low density lipoproteins (beta-VLDL) in a ligand blotting assay on nitrocellulose membranes. Binding was markedly activated when the beta-VLDL was preincubated with recombinant human apoE-3, native human apoE-3 or E-4, or native rabbit apoE. Human apoE-2, which binds poorly (1-2% of apo E-3 binding) to low density lipoprotein receptors, was approximately 40% as effective as apoE-3 or apoE-4 in binding to LRP. Stimulation of apoE-dependent binding to LRP was blocked by the inclusion of a mixture of human apoC proteins, but not apoA-I or A-II, in the preincubation reaction. High concentrations of apoE did not overcome the apoC inhibition. The effects of apoE and apoC on the ligand blotting assay were paralleled by similar effects in the ability of beta-VLDL to stimulate cholesteryl ester synthesis in mutant human fibroblasts that lack low density lipoprotein receptors. These properties of LRP are consistent with the known effects of apoE and apoC on uptake of chylomicron and very low density lipoprotein remnants in the liver and raise the possibility that LRP functions as a receptor for apoE-enriched forms of these lipoproteins in intact animals.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
