Binding of LPS and LPS--LDL complexes to rat hepatocytes.
We studied binding of 3H-LPS toxin and LPS complexes with serum 125I-LDL to primary culture of rat hepatocytes. Receptor binding of LPS and LDL--LPS complex was 50 and 77% of the total, respectively. Scatchard plot was linear in both cases. LDL and LDL--LPS complexes were inessential for LPS binding, while LDL--LPS binding was appreciably suppressed by LPS (-30%) and LDL (-65%).
