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]

open access: yes, 2013
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

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2003
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,

A comparative study of sulphated polysaccharide effects on advanced glycation end-product uptake and scavenger receptor class A level in macrophages

open access: yesDiabetes & Vascular Disease Research, 2020
Advanced glycation end-products, especially toxic advanced glycation end-products derived from glyceraldehyde (advanced glycation end-product-2) and glycolaldehyde (advanced glycation end-product-3), are biologically reactive compounds associated with ...

Scavenger receptors in atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Hematology, 1997
Membership in the broad family of scavenger receptors has grown significantly. Two new scavenger receptor receptors have been cloned (SR-BI and SR-CI) and a previously isolated integral membrane protein (CD36) has been found to possess lipoprotein binding properties that entitle it to be included in the family. The breadth of ligand recognition of this

Amino terminus of apolipoprotein B suffices to produce recognition of malondialdehyde-modified low density lipoprotein by the scavenger receptor of human monocyte-macrophages

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1997
Malondialdehyde, a product of lipid peroxidation, produces threshold conversion of low density lipoprotein (LDL) to a form recognized by type I and type II scavenger receptors of monocyte-macrophages.

Factors regulating the activities of the low density lipoprotein receptor and the scavenger receptor on human monocyte-macrophages.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1981
Improved techniques of cell isolation resulted in 90 to 100 million monocytes from a single donor. Addition of low density lipoprotein (LDL) to to cultures of these cells resulted in the down regulation of LDL receptor activity.

Insights into the ligand binding specificity of SREC‐II (scavenger receptor expressed by endothelial cells)

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, 2021
SREC‐II (scavenger receptor expressed by endothelial cells II) is a membrane protein encoded by the SCARF2 gene, with high homology to class F scavenger receptor SR‐F1, but no known scavenging function.

Evolution of Fc Receptor-Like Scavenger in Mammals

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Scavenger Receptors and Their Potential as Therapeutic Targets in the Treatment of Cardiovascular Disease

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hypertension, 2010
Scavenger receptors act as membrane-bound and soluble proteins that bind to macromolecular complexes and pathogens. This diverse supergroup of proteins mediates binding to modified lipoprotein particles which regulate the initiation and progression of ...
