Abstract

Periportal and perivenous rat liver parenchymal cells were isolated according to the digitonin-collagenase perfusion method. Affinities and maximal specific binding of a conjugate of glutathione S-transferase and the alpha 2-macroglobulin receptor-associated protein (GST-39kDaP), of lactoferrin and of transferrin to freshly isolated periportal parenchymal cells in vitro were not significantly different from values obtained with perivenous cells. It is concluded that the receptors for these three ligands show a zonally homogeneous expression in rat liver. The zonal homogeneity in binding observed for GST-39kDaP is at variance with the 1.5-fold higher periportal over perivenous binding of trypsin-activated alpha 2-macroglobulin. Since GST-39kDaP as well as trypsin-activated alpha 2-macroglobulin are ligands for the alpha 2-macroglobulin receptor/low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein, it is suggested that GST-39kDaP can bind to (an) additional receptor(s) with a higher perivenous expression. The zonal homogeneity observed with lactoferrin, an inhibitor of ligand binding to the lipoprotein remnant receptor, may indicate zonal homogeneity of the lipoprotein remnant receptor. The observed zonal homogeneity of the transferr...Continue Reading

ApoE, Lipids & Cholesterol

Serum cholesterol, triglycerides, apolipoprotein B (APOB)-containing lipoproteins (very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), immediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL), lipoprotein A (LPA)) and the total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol ratio are all connected in diseases. Here is the latest research.
