the hypothesis that the hepatic receptor for asialoglycoproteins would mediate turnover of glycoproteins in blood ( after their desialylation by neuraminidase located on cell surfaces ) was tested in rats by measuring clearance of intact 125i-labeled glycoproteins in the presence or absence of enough unlabeled asialoglycoproteins to saturate the asialoglycoprotein receptor .
