Effects of chylomicron remnants and beta-VLDL on the class and composition of newly secreted lipoproteins by HepG2 cells.

The regulation of lipoprotein secretion in the cell line HepG2 was studied. HepG2 cells were preincubated with chylomicron remnants (triglyceride- and cholesterol-rich) or with beta very low density lipoproteins (beta-VLDL) (cholesterol-rich). The medium was removed and the cells were incubated for...
