Sterol regulation of scavenger receptor class B type I in macrophages [PDF]
Journal of Lipid Research, 2004 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]
Journal of Lipid Research, 2004 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 as a receptor for oxidized low density lipoprotein [PDF]
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.

Remodeling of HDL remnants generated by scavenger receptor class B type I [PDF]
Journal of Lipid Research, 2004 Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) mediates the selective transfer of cholesteryl ester from HDL to cells. We previously established that SR-BI overexpressed in livers of apolipoprotein A-I-deficient mice processes exogenous human HDL2 to ...

Scavenger receptor class B type I localizes to a late endosomal compartment [PDF]
Journal of Lipid Research, 2008 Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) has an established role in mediating the selective uptake of cholesterol from HDL in hepatocytes, steroidogenic cells, and other tissues.

Regulation and splicing of scavenger receptor class B type I in human macrophages and atherosclerotic plaques [PDF]
BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2005 Background The protective role of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in the cardiovascular system is related to its role in the reverse transport of cholesterol from the arterial wall to the liver for subsequent excretion via the bile.

Novel Functions of Endothelial Scavenger Receptor Class B Type I. [PDF]
Curr Atheroscler Rep, 2021 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-

Scavenger receptor class B type I is a multiligand HDL receptor that influences diverse physiologic systems [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2001 Scavenger receptors (SRs) are defined as cell surface membrane proteins that bind chemically modified lipoproteins, such as acetylated LDL (AcLDL) and oxidized LDL (OxLDL), and often many other types of ligands (1–3). Initially, scavenger receptor activity was identified as “AcLDL receptor activity” by Brown, Goldstein, and colleagues (2), who were ...

Scavenger receptor class B type I and immune dysfunctions. [PDF]
Curr Opin Endocrinol Diabetes Obes, 2014 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.

Phosphatidylserine Binding of Class B Scavenger Receptor Type I, a Phagocytosis Receptor of Testicular Sertoli Cells [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2002 Testicular Sertoli cells phagocytose apoptotic spermatogenic cells in a manner depending on the membrane phospholipid phosphatidylserine (PS) expressed at the surface of the latter cell type. Our previous studies have indicated that class B scavenger receptor type I (SR-BI) is responsible for the PS-mediated phagocytosis by Sertoli cells.
