Title: Scavenger receptor for malondialdehyde-modified high density lipoprotein on rat sinusoidal liver cells

Journal Article · · Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun.; (United States)

The presence of a membrane-associated receptor which mediates endocytic uptake of malondialydehyde-modified high density lipoprotein (MDA-HDL) on sinusoidal liver cells is reported. Binding of (/sup 125/I)MDA-HDL to the cells was followed by internalization and degradation in lysosomes. The binding and lysomal degradation of (/sup 125/I)MDA-HDL were effectively inhibited by unlabeled MDA-HDL and acetyl-HDL. However, formaldehyde-treated serum albumin or low density lipoprotein modified either by acetylation or malondialdehyde, ligands known to undergo receptor-mediated endocytosis by sinusoidal liver cells, did not affect the binding of (/sup 175/I)MDA-HDL to the cells. These results indicate that a receptor for MDA-HDL is described as a distinct member among the scavenger receptors for chemically modified proteins.
