A targeted mutation in the murine gene encoding the high density lipoprotein (HDL) receptor scavenger receptor class B type I reveals its key role in HDL metabolism [PDF]
Plasma high density lipoprotein (HDL), which protects against atherosclerosis, is thought to remove cholesterol from peripheral tissues and to deliver cholesteryl esters via a selective uptake pathway to the liver (reverse cholesterol transport) and ...

Novel Functions of Endothelial Scavenger Receptor Class B Type I. [PDF]
Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) serves a key role in the reverse cholesterol transport in the liver as the high-affinity receptor for HDL. SR-BI is abundantly expressed in endothelium, and earlier works indicate that the receptor mediates anti-atherogenic actions of HDL. However, more recent studies uncovered novel functions of endothelial SR-

Targeted Disruption of the PDZK1 Gene in Mice Causes Tissue-specific Depletion of the High Density Lipoprotein Receptor Scavenger Receptor Class B Type I and Altered Lipoprotein Metabolism [PDF]
PDZK1, a multi-PDZ domain containing adaptor protein, interacts with various membrane proteins, including the high density lipoprotein (HDL) receptor scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI).

Lp-PLA2, scavenger receptor class B type I gene (SCARB1) rs10846744 variant, and cardiovascular disease. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:We previously reported association of SCARB1 SNP rs10846744 with common carotid IMT (cIMT) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) events. Since rs10846744 has been reported in association with Lp-PLA2 mass and activity, we hypothesized that ...

The human scavenger receptor class B type I is a novel candidate receptor for the hepatitis C virus [PDF]
We discovered that the hepatitis C virus (HCV) envelope glycoprotein E2 binds to human hepatoma cell lines independently of the previously proposed HCV receptor CD81. Comparative binding studies using recombinant E2 from the most prevalent 1a and 1b genotypes revealed that E2 recognition by hepatoma cells is independent from the viral isolate, while E2-

Sterol regulation of scavenger receptor class B type I in macrophages [PDF]
Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) is expressed in macrophages, but its role in sterol trafficking in these cells remains controversial. We examined the effect of sterol loading on SR-BI expression in human monocytes/macrophages, mouse peritoneal ...

Dimerization of the scavenger receptor class B type I [PDF]
This study has examined the dimeric/oligomeric forms of scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) and its alternatively spliced form, SR-BII, in a diverse group of cells and tissues: i.e., normal and hormonally altered tissues of mice and rats as well as

Scavenger receptor class B type I: a multifunctional receptor [PDF]
The scavenger receptor class B type I (SR‐B1) plays an important role in meditating the uptake of HDL‐derived cholesterol and cholesteryl ester in the liver and steroidogenic tissues. In addition to being ubiquitous, SR‐B1 is a high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) receptor in many tissues, though the mechanism by which SR‐B1 does this is unclear.

Scavenger receptor class B type I and immune dysfunctions. [PDF]
To summarize the recent findings about the roles of scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) in immunity and discuss the underlying mechanisms by which SR-BI prevents immune dysfunctions.SR-BI is well known as a high-density lipoprotein (HDL) receptor playing key roles in HDL metabolism and in protection against atherosclerosis.
