Malaria susceptibility and CD36 mutation
A critical step in infection by Plasmodium falciparum, the microorganism that causes the most severe form of malaria, is the adhesion of parasitized red blood cells to capillary endothelium. The human protein CD36 is a major receptor for P. falciparum-infected red blood cells1,2 and may contribute to the disease by sequestering infected red blood ...

Role of CD36 in cancer progression, stemness, and targeting
CD36 is highly expressed in diverse tumor types and its expression correlates with advanced stages, poor prognosis, and reduced survival. In cancer cells, CD36: 1) increases fatty acid uptake, reprogramming lipid metabolism; 2) favors cancer cell ...

Objective To investigate whether glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) (7-36) inhibits the progression of aortic atherosclerotic plaque in ApoE knockout (ApoE-/-) mice fed with high-fat diet and the effect of GLP-1 (7-36) on the expressions of CD36 and acyl ...

The effects of exogenous lipid on THP-1 cells : an in vitro model of airway aspiration? [PDF]
Chronic inflammatory diseases of the airways are associated with gastro-oesophageal reflux (GOR) and aspiration events. The observation of lipid laden macrophages (LLM) within the airway may indicate aspiration secondary to GOR.

CD36 contributes to malaria parasite-induced pro-inflammatory cytokine production and NK and T cell activation by dendritic cells. [PDF]
The scavenger receptor CD36 plays important roles in malaria, including the sequestration of parasite-infected erythrocytes in microvascular capillaries, control of parasitemia through phagocytic clearance by macrophages, and immunity.

Cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36) is a transmembrane glycoprotein with the ability to bind to multiple ligands and perform diverse functions. Through the recognition of long-chain fatty acids, proteins containing thrombospondin structural homology repeat domains such as thrombospondin-1, and molecules with molecular structures consistent with danger-

NRF2 signalling in cytoprotection and metabolism
The KEAP1‐NRF2 system plays a central role in cytoprotection in defence mechanisms against oxidative stress. The KEAP1‐NRF2 system has been regarded as a sulfur‐utilizing cytoprotective mechanism, because KEAP1 serves as a biosensor for electrophiles by using its reactive thiols and NRF2 is a transcriptional factor regulating genes involved in sulfur ...

The CD36-PPARγ Pathway in Metabolic Disorders [PDF]
Uncovering the biological role of nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) has greatly advanced our knowledge of the transcriptional control of glucose and energy metabolism. As such, pharmacological activation of PPARγ has emerged as an efficient approach for treating metabolic disorders with the current use of ...

In human monocytic cells THP‐1, a limited uptake of native—not oxidized—LDL/VLDL induced expression of scavenger receptor A and cellular adhesion. Induction was inhibited by lysosomotropic (WR‐1065) and lipophilic (BHT) antioxidants and by siRNAs against ferritinophagy.

Prediction of B cell epitopes of CD36 and preparation of MAP
Objective To analyze the structure of CD36, search the possible B cell epitopes and prepare multi-antigen peptides(MAP) with B cell epitopes, so as to provide a preliminary experimental basis for the preparation of CD36 antibodies using MAP with B cell ...
