Receptor-mediated uptake of low density lipoprotein stimulates bile acid synthesis by cultured rat hepatocytes.
The cellular mechanisms responsible for the lipoprotein-mediated stimulation of bile acid synthesis in cultured rat hepatocytes were investigated. Adding 280 micrograms/ml of cholesterol in the form of human or rat low density lipoprotein (LDL) to the culture medium increased bile acid synthesis by...
