Effect of LRP competitors on LRP distribution and chylomicron remnant uptake in Ldlr–/– livers. Experiments were conducted as described in Figure 1. LRP was stained with anti-LRP antibody (green). The perfusate contained only media or DiD remnants (red) and unlabeled competitors. (a) Ldlr–/– livers perfused with lipoprotein-free media. (bd) Ldlr–/– livers perfused with 4 μg/ml DiD remnants. (eg) Ldlr–/– livers perfused with 4 μg/ml DiD remnants and 8 μg/ml α2-macroglobulin (α2M). (hj) Ldlr–/– livers perfused with 4 μg/ml DiD remnants and 8 μg/ml RAP. (b, e, and h) DiD remnants; (a, c, f, and i) LRP; (d, g, and j) merged images. Bars = 10 μm.
