Defensin stimulates the binding of LDL to FH cells.
Wild-type (WT) or LDL-R–deficient fibroblasts (FH) were incubated with 50 nmol/L 125I-LDL in the absence (left side) or presence (right side) of 10 μmol/L defensin and the specific binding was determined as above. The mean ± SEM of 3 experiments is shown.
