Abstract:
Lp(a) receptor and LDL receptor on rhesus monkey liver cellular membrane were studied by Western blotting, to investigate whether Lp(a) and LDL metabolize through the same route. The experiment demonstrated Lp(a) receptor ( 300kD) and LDL receptor ( 185kD) to be different kinds of receptors. The result reveals that Lp(a) has its own metabolic pathway.
