Vv. Tertov et al., INTERACTION BETWEEN MULTIPLY MODIFIED (DESIALYLATED) LOW-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS ISOLATED FROM BLOOD OF ATHEROSCLEROTIC PATIENTS AND CELL RECEPTORS, Bulletin of experimental biology and medicine, 117(1), 1994, pp. 55-57
It is shown that binding of native LDL to fibroblasts expressing the B
,E-receptors is twice as high as that of desialylated LDL. An excess o
f acetylated LDL inhibits binding, uptake, and degradation of I-125-de
sialylated LDL by macrophages, while an excess of desialylated LDL inh
ibits binding, uptake, and degradation of acetylated LDL. Desialylated
LDL may interact with both B,E and scavenger receptors.
