Abstract excerpt
We have developed a serum-free medium for the long-term culture of highly differentiated primary baboon hepatocytes. Hepatocytes isolated from animals with defined plasma Lp(a) levels and apo(a) glycoprotein phenotypes were used to study the assembly of Lp(a). A combination of steady-state and pu...
