Influence of Lipoproteins on the Synthesis of Apo E by Rat Ovarian Granulosa Cells

摘要: Apo E, a protein of 35,000 Da, is found associated with chylomicron remnants, very low-density lipoproteins, and subset large high-density lipoproteins (HDL; 1, 2). It ligand on that recognized by the B/E or LDL receptor, apo E-specific hepatic receptors, immunoregulatory receptors lymphocyte membranes (1, One function E appears to be transport excess cholesterol from peripheral tissues liver for excretion in process called reverse The major site synthesis liver, although mRNA has been detected significant quantities other tissues, including steroidogenic (3).
