Rapid fluorometric assay of LDL receptor activity by DiI-labeled LDL.

DiI-LDL (3,3'-dioctadecylindocarbocyanine-low density lipoprotein) has been extensively used in morphological and microscopic studies of receptor-mediated metabolism of LDL in many cell lines. To date the use of this fluorescent probe in a quantitative assay of LDL receptor activity has not bee...
