LDL receptor family-dependent and -independent pathways for the internalization and digestion of lipoprotein lipase-associated beta-VLDL by rat vascular smooth muscle cells

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) promotes the binding and internalization of beta-VLDL (very low density lipoprotein) by many cell types. We examined the function of receptors in the LDL receptor family (LRF) and heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG) in the metabolism of LPL-associated beta-VLDLa by rat vasc...
