The receptor is overexpressed in glioblastoma multiforme—a type of brain tumor—and pancreatic cancer. By using a radiotracer to detect cells that express LDLR, the collaborators could identify ...

A few years ago, a receptor called the Very Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor (VLDLR) was identified as the primary receptor for Semliki Forest virus when entering host cells. Reaches the brain in ...

This finding could potentially be used to develop the Semliki Forest virus as an agent for treating brain cancer ... ago, a receptor called the Very Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor (VLDLR ...
