The very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) receptor binds apolipoprotein E-rich lipoproteins as
well as the 39-kDa receptor-associated protein (RAP). Ligand blotting experiments using
RAP and immunoblotting experiments using an anti-VLDL receptor IgG detected the VLDL
receptor in detergent extracts of human aortic endothelial cells, human umbilical vein
endothelial cells, and human aortic smooth muscle cells. To gain insight into the role of the
VLDL receptor in the vascular endothelium, its ligand binding properties were further …
