Brown et al., Biochem J 1989
:
Glucagon ( via cyclic AMP ) and adrenaline ( via cyclic AMP and alpha-effects ) increased the binding of 125I-LDL to the LDL receptor, and the degradation of LDL to [ 125I ] iodotyrosine
Rudling et al., J Clin Invest 1993
:
Immunoblot analysis showed that glucagon increased the number of hepatic LDL receptors ... We conclude that glucagon induces the number of hepatic LDL receptors by a mechanism not related to increased mRNA levels, suggesting the presence of a posttranscriptional regulatory mechanism present in the liver in vivo
Garner et al., J Biol Chem 1997
:
Glucagon suppressed both macrophage mediated metal reduction and LDL oxidation
