Lipoprotein lipase degradation by adipocytes: receptor-associated protein (RAP)-sensitive and proteoglycan-mediated pathways

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL), the major enzyme responsible for the hydrolysis of triglycerides, is primarily synthesized by adipocytes and myocytes. In addition to synthesis, degradation of cell surface-associated LPL is thought to be important in regulating production of the enzyme. We studied LPL meta...
