Scavenger Receptor CD163 and Its Biological Functions

Acta Medica, 2009
CD163 is a member of scavenger receptor super family class B of the first subgroup. It is mapped to the region p13 on chromosome 12. Five different isoforms of CD163 have been described, which differ in the structure of their cytoplasmic domains and ...

A Consensus Definitive Classification of Scavenger Receptors and Their Roles in Health and Disease [PDF]

, 2017
Scavenger receptors constitute a large family of proteins that are structurally diverse and participate in a wide range of biological functions. These receptors are expressed predominantly by myeloid cells and recognize a diverse variety of ligands ...

Apoptotic cell recognition receptors and scavenger receptors [PDF]

Immunological Reviews, 2015
SummaryPhosphatidylserine recognition receptors are a highly diverse set of receptors grouped by their ability to recognize the ‘eat‐me’ signal phosphatidylserine on apoptotic cells. Most of the phosphatidylserine recognition receptors dampen inflammation by inducing the production of anti‐inflammatory mediators during the phagocytosis of apoptotic ...

Deletion of the murine scavenger receptor CD68[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2011
Scavenger receptors (ScRs) are a structurally unrelated family of receptors with the ability to bind modified low density lipoprotein (LDL) as well as a broad range of polyanionic ligands.

Scavenger Receptors in Atherosclerosis [PDF]

Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2006
Atherosclerotic vascular disease arises as a consequence of the deposition and retention of serum lipoproteins in the artery wall. Macrophages in lesions have been shown to express ≥6 structurally different scavenger receptors for uptake of modified forms of low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) that promote the cellular accumulation of cholesterol.

Innate scavenger receptor-A regulates adaptive T helper cell responses to pathogen infection

Nature Communications, 2017
Scavenger receptors can function as pattern recognition receptors to sense infection. Here the authors show that, in response to worm and bacterial infection, scavenger receptor class A prevents nuclear localization of IRF5 and thereby drives M2 ...

Scavenger receptor class B type I as a receptor for oxidized low density lipoprotein

Journal of Lipid Research, 2001
Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) has been established as the primary mediator of the selective transfer of lipids from HDL to mammalian cells.

Lipoprotein receptor interactions are not required for monocyte oxidation of LDL.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1995
Upon activation, human peripheral blood monocytes and U937 cells oxidized low density lipoprotein (LDL), converting it to a cytotoxin. The oxidized LDL loses its ability to interact specifically with the native LDL (apoB/E) receptor and becomes a ligand ...

Activated scavenger receptor A promotes glial internalization of aβ. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Beta-amyloid (Aβ) aggregates have a pivotal role in pathological processing of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The clearance of Aβ monomer or aggregates is a causal strategy for AD treatment.
