fussnote | The ability of cultured human arterial smooth muscle cells to regulate low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor activity was tested. In contrast to human skin fibroblasts incubated with lipoprotein deficient medium under identical conditions, smooth muscle cells showed significantly reduced enhancement of ^1^2^5I-labeled LDL and ^1^2^5I-labeled VLDL (very low density lipoprotein) binding. Smooth muscle cells also failed to suppress LDL receptor activity during incubation with either LDL or cholesterol added to the medium, while fibroblasts showed an active regulatory response. Thus, in comparison with the brisk LDL receptor regulation characteristic of skin fibroblasts, arterial smooth muscle cells have an attenuated capacity to regulate their LDL receptor activity. These results may be relevant to the propensity of these cells to accumulate LDL and cholesterol and form ''foam cells'' in the arterial wall in vivo, a process associated with atherogenesis. |
