Low-Density Lipoprotein Uptake Demonstrates a Hepatocyte Phenotype in the Dog, but Is Nonspecific.

Abstract excerpt

Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) uptake is one of a number of tests used to demonstrate hepatocyte-like function after stem cell differentiation. Use of two compounds, LDL and acetylated LDL (AcLDL), has been described despite each having different mechanisms of uptake.
