Pigeon aortic smooth muscle cells lack a functional low density lipoprotein receptor pathway.
The low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor pathway was studied in aortic smooth muscle cells from atherosclerosis-susceptible White Carneau pigeons and compared with rhesus monkey cells whose LDL receptor pathway has been previously characterized. Pigeon LDL was bound with high affinity in a saturab...
