Immunohistochemical localization of lipoprotein lipase in human adipose tissue
L Jonasson, GK Hansson, G Bondjers, G Bengtsson… - Atherosclerosis, 1984 - Elsevier
The distribution of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) was studied in needle biopsies of human adipose
tissue. Antibodies against bovine milk LPL react with and inhibit the activity of the human
enzyme. These antibodies were used for immunohistochemical studies of the distribution of
LPL in human adipose tissue. Immunoreactive enzyme was observed in adipocytes and
connective tissue cells resembling preadipocytes. It was also seen in perivascular cells, in
capillaries and in larger vessels. Intravenous administration of heparin led to a substantial …
