Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein in CaCo-2 cells: characterization and regulation.

As microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) is required for the assembly and secretion of apoB-containing lipoproteins by intestinal epithelial cells, the characterization and regulation of MTP in human intestinal cells, CaCo-2, was studied. CaCo-2 cells express MTP mRNA of 4.2 kb and a 97 kDa...
