Abstract: | Summary The binding of asialoglycoproteins by hepatic binding protein was studied in freshly isolated hepatocytes from genetically diabetic BB Wistar rats. The number of cell surface asialoglycoprotein receptors was dramatically decreased (58,000±38,000 for diabetic rats compared to 267,000±70,000 for normal rats), while the association equilibrium constant was not changed. These results parallel those obtained with streptozotocin-diabetic rats and support the hypothesis that insulin deprivation is responsible for the decrease in the receptor number. |
