<prompt> Low-density lipoproteins LDL represents a final stage in the catabolism of VLDL. Which of the following receptors are present in liver for uptake of LDL?Apo EApo A and Apo EApo E and Apo B100Apo B100  <response>: The liver and many extrahepatic tissues express the LDL apo B-100, E receptor. It is so designated because it is specific for apo B-100 but not B-48, and also takes up lipoproteins rich in apo E. Approximately 30 of LDL is degraded in extrahepatic tissues and 70 in the liver. The LDL apoB-100, E receptor is defective in familial hypercholesterolemia. Ref: Botham K.M., Mayes P.A. 2011. Chapter 25. Lipid Transpo Storage. In D.A. Bender, K.M. Botham, P.A. Weil, P.J.
