Popis: Human low-density lipoprotein (LDL) was glycated in vitro (5 days, glucose 50 mmol/l), labelled with 125I, and its binding and uptake by human monocyte-derived macrophages studied. Glycation produced lower binding and lower uptake. Competition experiments using unlabelled LDL (control, glycated, and acetyl-LDL) showed that most glycated LDL was taken up by the apolipoprotein-B100: E receptor pathway. Results suggest that less of the glycated LDL may enter the cells via scavenger receptors, and very minute amount via non-saturable receptor-independent pathways.
