LDL-mediated interaction of Lp[a] with HepG2 cells: a novel fluorescence microscopy approach

We studied the topography of Lp[a]-LDL-cell interactions by means of fluorescence microscopy, using fluorescence-labeled lipoproteins. In contrast to known methods which are based on noncovalent labeling of lipoproteins by positively charged amphiphiles, the protein moiety of LDL and Lp[a] was coval...
