“…It has been previously reported that the liver PCs are the main site of uptake of  2 M* [10,15]. The authors used autoradiography as a method for identifying the anatomical site of uptake.…”

“…Since ␣ 2 M-proteinase and methylamine derivatives have similar conformations and are recognized equally well by cellular receptors, ␣ 2 M* is often used to designate either receptor recognized form. Exposure of these sites on ␣ 2 M leads to rapid clearance in vivo as demonstrated in mouse, human, and dog circulation and in vitro by cells expressing a cellular receptor for ␣ 2 M* (9,(11)(12)(13)(14). These receptor recognition sites have been localized to a carboxyterminal receptor binding fragment of ␣ 2 M (RBF) ( ‫ف‬ 20,000 M r ) which can be proteolytically derived (15)(16)(17) and has now been cloned and expressed from rat ␣ 1 -macroglobulin (18).…”

“…After reaction with proteinase or amine, a receptorrecognition site is exposed on a2M and the complex is cleared rapidly from the circulation by hepatocytes and reticuloendothelial cells (7)(8)(9). Specific receptors for a2M exist on many cell types, as determined in tissue culture studies (8)(9)(10).…”
