Endothelial scavenger receptors

Progress in Lipid Research, 2006
In the past few decades, cDNAs for endothelial scavenger receptors that bind to negatively charged molecules, particularly acetylated low density lipoproteins (Ac-LDL), have been cloned by expression cloning using modified LDL as ligands. A prototypic members of endothelial scavenger receptor family, namely, scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI ...

Hemoglobin and Heme Scavenger Receptors

Antioxidants & Redox Signaling, 2010
Heme, the functional group of hemoglobin, myoglobin, and other hemoproteins, is a highly toxic substance when it appears in the extracellular milieu. To circumvent potential harmful effects of heme from hemoproteins released during physiological or pathological cell damage (such as hemolysis and rhabdomyolysis), specific high capacity scavenging ...

Macrophage scavenger receptors

Current Opinion in Lipidology, 1994
Macrophage scavenger receptors are integral membrane proteins whose ability to bind and degrade modified LDL has implicated them in the process of atherosclerotic foam cell formation. Their ability to bind non-lipoprotein ligands suggests that they participate in other macrophage-associated host defense activities.

Macrophage scavenger receptors and atherosclerosis

Trends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 1992
The fatty streak is the earliest visible atherosclerotic lesion. Microscopically, this lesion consists of a subendothelial collection of macrophage foam cells that are characterized by their content of numerous lipid droplets. Investigations into the mechanisms responsible for foam cell formation have led to the identification of macrophage scavenger ...

Identification of the haemoglobin scavenger receptor

Nature, 2001
Intravascular haemolysis is a physiological phenomenon as well as a severe pathological complication when accelerated in various autoimmune, infectious (such as malaria) and inherited (such as sickle cell disease) disorders. Haemoglobin released into plasma is captured by the acute phase protein haptoglobin, which is depleted from plasma during ...

Scavenger receptor regulation and atherosclerosis

BioFactors, 2000
AbstractAtherosclerosis and its complications, such as coronary heart disease, heart infarction and stroke, are the leading causes of death in the developed world. High blood pressure, diabetes, smoking and a diet high in cholesterol and lipids clearly increase the likelihood of premature atherosclerosis, albeit other factors, such as the individual ...

Collagenous macrophage scavenger receptors

Current Opinion in Lipidology, 1996
Collagen, the most abundant protein in the human body, is a major constituent of extracellular matrix. Among macrophage membrane proteins, type I and II scavenger receptors and MARCO contain a collagenous domain. Analysis of type I and II receptor knockout mice and histochemical studies indicate that these proteins play roles in scavenger, adhesion and
