LDLR

Low-density lipoprotein receptor

The low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene family includes LDLR, very LDLR, and LDL receptor-related proteins (LRPs) such as LRP1, LRP1b (aka LRP-DIT), LRP2 (aka megalin), LRP4, and LRP5/6, and LRP8 (aka ApoER2). LDLR family members constitute a class of closely related multifunctional, transmembrane receptors, with diverse functions, from embryonic development to cancer, lipid metabolism, and cardiovascular homeostasis.

    Rebaudioside A (Standard)
    		Activator
    Rebaudioside A (Standard) is the analytical standard of Rebaudioside A. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Rebaudioside A is an orally effective steviol glycoside with high sweetness. Rebaudioside A acts as an inhibitor of α-glucosidase with an IC50 value of 35.01 μg/mL. Rebaudioside A increases the ATP/ADP ratio in β cells in a glucose-dependent manner, thereby inhibiting KATP channels, leading to membrane depolarization, calcium influx, and ultimately stimulating insulin secretion. Rebaudioside A activates the SREBP signaling pathway by inhibiting HMGCR, the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis, resulting in increased expression of LDLR on the cell surface, thus promoting the uptake of LDL-C in the blood. Rebaudioside A can be used for studies on blood glucose and lipid regulation as well as anti-obesity.
