Scavenger Receptors as Biomarkers and Therapeutic Targets in Cardiovascular Disease
Cells, 2020 The process of atherosclerosis leads to the formation of plaques in the arterial wall, resulting in a decreased blood supply to tissues and organs and its sequelae: morbidity and mortality.

Evolution of Fc Receptor-Like Scavenger in Mammals
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Fc receptor-like (FCRL) molecules comprise a large family of receptors, homologous to the receptors for the Fc portion of immunoglobulins (FCR). Within this family, an unusual gene known to exist in mice, rats and dogs, termed FCRLS, encodes a chimeric ...

Cell Model of In-cloud Scavenging of Highly Soluble Gases [PDF]
, 2012 We investigate mass transfer during absorption of highly soluble gases such as HNO_{3}, H_{2}O_{2} by stagnant cloud droplets in the presence of inert admixtures. Thermophysical properties of the gases and liquids are assumed to be constant. Diffusion interactions between droplets, caused by the overlap of depleted of soluble gas regions around the ...

Identification of Scavenger Receptor Ligands
, 2011 Scavenger receptors (SRs) are structurally diverse but functionally related innate immune receptors involved in defence and clearance mechanisms. Their broad specificity relies on evolutionarily conserved pattern recognition domains which interact with a variety of microbial, apoptotic and modified self ligands.

Making Photoresponsive Metal–Organic Frameworks an Effective Class of Heterogeneous Photocatalyst
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This review summarizes photoresponsive MOFs for photocatalytic applications, focusing on their capacity to enhance light harvesting, charge transfer, and surface reactions. While existing studies provide foundational insights, emerging characterization techniques enable a deeper understanding of photoresponsive MOFs.

CD36, a scavenger receptor implicated in atherosclerosis [PDF]
Experimental & Molecular Medicine, 2014 CD36 is a membrane glycoprotein that is present on various types of cells, including monocytes, macrophages, microvascular endothelial cells, adipocytes and platelets. Macrophage CD36 participates in atherosclerotic arterial lesion formation through its interaction with oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL), which triggers signaling cascades for ...

Platelet hyperreactivity, scavenger receptors and atherothrombosis [PDF]
Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2009 Scavenger receptors (SRs) were initially identified as macrophage receptors that recognize modified lipoproteins. The lists of SRs, their ligands and cells expressing SRs have been significantly extended during the last two decades. What has become clear is that many ligands of SRs are present in vivo only in pathologic conditions.
