Function
Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 2 (LRP2), also known as megalin, is an endocytic receptor expressed on the apical surface of epithelial cells that internalizes diverse ligands, including nutrients, hormones, morphogens, and extracellular matrix proteins[1]. Mechanistically, LRP2 modulates sonic hedgehog (SHH) signaling in stem and progenitor cell niches, playing crucial roles in brain, eye, and heart development[2]. This receptor participates in both lysosomal degradation and transcytosis, with its surface availability regulated by phosphorylation, extracellular domain shedding, intramembrane proteolysis, and exosome secretion[1]. LRP2 dysfunction has been linked to congenital syndromes, diabetic nephropathy, Dent disease, Lowe syndrome, Alzheimer's disease, and neural regeneration deficits[1][2]. Compared with related LDL receptor family members, LRP2 uniquely acts as an auxiliary receptor for SHH, whereas LRP5/6 primarily function as Wnt co-receptors and LRP1 modulates inflammatory signaling[3][2][4]. In experimental models, LRP2 expression has been observed in neural and epithelial tissues, enabling studies on morphogen regulation, ligand trafficking, and receptor-mediated endocytosis[1][2]. Agonists and inhibitors targeting LRP2 remain under investigation, with potential applications for modulating SHH pathways in developmental disorders and tissue repair[2]. Collectively, LRP2 functions at the interface of morphogen signaling and cellular uptake, offering a distinct mechanistic profile within the LDLR receptor family and a valuable target for experimental manipulation[1][2].

Expression
Tissue_specificity:In the inner ear, it is highly expressed in the marginal cells of the stria vascularis (protein level) (PubMed:17846082) . In the female reproductive tract, it is expressed in the luminal side of the uterine epithelium (protein level) (PubMed:16143106) . In the adult brain, it is expressed in the ependymal cells of the lateral ventricles, and expression is limited to the ependyma facing the stem cell microenvironment (protein level) (PubMed:20460439) . It is expressed in neurons throughout the brain, including the hippocampus, limbic cortex, and cerebellum (protein level) (PubMed:20637285) . In the developing optic nerve, it is expressed only in astrocytes at 14.5 dpc, 16.5 dpc, and 18.5 dpc (protein level) (PubMed:22354480) .
Induction:Down-regulated in the kidney by cannabinoids, such as endocannabinoid anandamide and synthetic cannabinoid HU-210 -
