Soybean protein products as regulators of liver low-density lipoprotein receptors. II. alpha-alpha' rich commercial soy concentrate and alpha' deficient mutant differently affect low-density lipoprotein receptor activation.

Abstract excerpt
Activation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors has been described in a human hepatoma cell line (Hep G2) exposed to the 7S globulin from soy (Lovati et al. J. Agric. Food Chem. 1998, 46, 2474-2480). This in vitro model supports a direct activity of soy protein component(s) in lowering LDL cholesterolemia. To ascertain whether alpha or alpha' subunits from 7S globulin, or both, are responsible for the bioche...
