ApoE-3-specific metabolism of human plasma very low density lipoproteins in cultured J-774 macrophages.

The effect of apoprotein E on the cellular metabolism of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) was studied using the J-774 macrophage-like cell line as a foam cell model. Exogenous (plasmatic and recombinant) apoE-3 caused a marked enhancement of the cellular binding, association, and degradation of...
