Regulation of the selective uptake of cholesteryl esters from high density lipoproteins by sphingomyelin

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
Although sphingomyelin (SM) is a major phospholipid in lipoproteins as well as in the membrane rafts where the scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) is localized, its possible role in the selective uptake of cholesteryl ester (CE) by the SR-BI ...

LDLs stimulate p38 MAPKs and wound healing through SR-BI independently of Ras and PI3 kinases⃞

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2009
Intracellular signals elicited by LDLs are likely to play a role in the pathogenesis associated with increased LDL blood levels. We have previously determined that LDL stimulation of human skin fibroblasts, used as a model system for adventitial ...

Hepatic lipase mediates an increase in selective uptake of HDL-associated cholesteryl esters by cells in culture independent from SR-BI

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2003
Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) mediates the selective uptake of HDL cholesteryl esters (CEs) by the liver. Hepatic lipase (HL) promotes this lipid uptake independent from lipolysis.

Glutathione Metabolism in Renal Cell Carcinoma Progression and Implications for Therapies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A significantly increased level of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger glutathione (GSH) has been identified as a hallmark of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The proposed mechanism for increased GSH levels is to counteract damaging ROS to sustain the

C323 of SR-BI is required for SR-BI-mediated HDL binding and cholesteryl ester uptake[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2011
Scavenger receptor BI (SR-BI) is an HDL receptor. It binds HDL and mediates the uptake of cholesteryl ester from HDL. Early studies have pointed out that the extracellular domain of SR-BI is critical for SR-BI-mediated cholesteryl ester uptake.

CD81 and claudin 1 coreceptor association: role in hepatitis C virus entry. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an enveloped positive-stranded RNA hepatotropic virus. HCV pseudoparticles infect liver-derived cells, supporting a model in which liver-specific molecules define HCV internalization.

Scavenger receptor class B type I affects cholesterol homeostasis by magnifying cholesterol flux between cells and HDL

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2001
Results from several laboratories clearly indicate that expression of scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) enhances the bidirectional flux of cholesterol between cells and lipoproteins.

The role of cellular adhesion molecules in virus attachment and entry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
As obligate intracellular parasites, viruses must traverse the host-cell plasma membrane to initiate infection. This presents a formidable barrier, which they have evolved diverse strategies to overcome.
