It is divided into two subtypes according to presence of O- linked sugar domain located in the VLDLR receptor immediately outside of the membrane. Type Ⅰ VLDLR contains the O-link domain, while type Ⅱhas no such domain. The type ⅠVLDLR are mainly found on the surface of human myocardial cells. The result of our quantitative polymerase chain reaction on the normal and fibrotic cardiac muscles showed that both subtypes and expression level of VLDLR on the myocardial cell surface did not vary significantly between the normal and the fibrotic cardiac muscles despite the presence of malfunction due to fibrosis. This finding suggests that fibrosis doesn't exert significant influence on the subtype and the expression of VLDLR on the sur- face of myocardial cells. Such inconsistence with the changes found in other fibrotic tissues is awaiting further studies.展开更多
