Toll-like receptor 4 and macrophage scavenger receptor 1 crosstalk regulates phagocytosis of a fungal pathogen [PDF]
The opportunistic fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans causes lethal infections in immunocompromised patients. Macrophages are central to the host response to cryptococci; however, it is unclear how C.

Scavenger Receptor C1 Mediates Toxicity of Binary Toxin from Lysinibacillus sphaericus to Ag55 Cells [PDF]
Lysinibacillus sphaericus harboring Binary (BinA and BinB) toxins is highly toxic against Anopheles and Culex mosquito larvae. The Anopheles Ag55 cell line is a suitable model for investigating the mode of Bin toxin action.

Class B scavenger receptor resists WSSV replication by recognizing the viral lipid molecule and promoting phagocytosis [PDF]
Class B scavenger receptors (SRBs) have been well-studied in bacteria-induced immune responses in invertebrates. However, the status of SRB-defending viruses remains unclear.

Class A scavenger receptor 1 (MSR1) restricts hepatitis C virus replication by mediating toll-like receptor 3 recognition of viral RNAs produced in neighboring cells [PDF]
Persistent infections with hepatitis C virus (HCV) may result in life-threatening liver disease, including cirrhosis and cancer, and impose an important burden on human health.

Lack of a direct role for macrosialin in oxidized LDL metabolism
Murine macrosialin (MS), a scavenger receptor family member, is a heavily glycosylated transmembrane protein expressed predominantly in macrophage late endosomes. MS is also found on the cell surface where it is suggested, on the basis of ligand blotting,

Hepatoma cell density promotes claudin-1 and scavenger receptor BI expression and hepatitis C virus internalization. [PDF]
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) entry occurs via a pH- and clathrin-dependent endocytic pathway and requires a number of cellular factors, including CD81, the tight-junction proteins claudin 1 (CLDN1) and occludin, and scavenger receptor class B member I (SR-BI).
