Abstract:
Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 (LRP-1) is a transmembrane receptor protein locatedon the plasma membrane of the cells and involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis.LRP-1 binds to distinct ligandsthat are structurally and functionally unrelated, which makes it not only mediates endocytosis, but also regulates cell surfaceproteolytic activity and specific intracellular signaling pathways related to multiple links in the process of developmentof atherosclerosis.Moreover, LRP-1 plays an important role in maintaining vascular stability.This review focuses on theprogress in LRP-1-regulated vascular integrity, and provides new insights to the target of the blood vessel diseases.
