Trophoblast‐like human choriocarcinoma cells serve as a suitable <i>in vitro</i> model for selective cholesteryl ester uptake from high density lipoproteins
13 Jan 2003
Abstract excerpt
As human choriocarcinoma cells display many of the biochemical and morphological characteristics reported for in utero invasive trophoblast cells we have studied cholesterol supply from high density lipoproteins (HDL) to these cells. Binding properties of 125I-labeled HDL subclass 3 (HDL3) at 4 degrees C were similar for BeWo, JAr, and Jeg3 choriocarcinoma cell lines while degradation rates at 37 degrees C were...
