Association of Scavenger Receptor Class B Type I Polymorphisms With Subclinical Atherosclerosis [PDF]

Circulation: Cardiovascular Genetics, 2010
Background— Little is known about the association of scavenger receptor class B type I ( SCARB1 ) single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and subclinical atherosclerosis, particularly in subjects of different racial/ethnic backgrounds. We examined this relationship in the Multi-

Chemical Strategies for Multistimuli Responsive Dynamic Covalent Materials in Regenerative Medicine

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Multistimuli responsive dynamic covalent materials integrate reversible chemistry with the complex chemical, mechanical, and biochemical cues of regenerative environments. This review highlights chemical strategies based on orthogonal dynamic bonds, multicomponent networks, and hierarchical architectures to regulate mechanics, degradation, and ...

CXCR7 functions as a scavenger for CXCL12 and CXCL11. [PDF]

, 2010
CXCR7 (RDC1), the recently discovered second receptor for CXCL12, is phylogenetically closely related to chemokine receptors, but fails to couple to G-proteins and to induce typical chemokine receptor mediated cellular responses. The function of CXCR7 is

Apolipoprotein M promotes cholesterol uptake and efflux from mouse macrophages

FEBS Open Bio, 2021
Apolipoprotein M (ApoM) exhibits various anti‐atherosclerotic functions as a component of high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) particles. Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR‐BI) is a classic HDL receptor that mediates selective cholesterol uptake and ...

Near‐Infrared Light‐Activated Polydopamine Nanoparticles Conjugated With Transferrin Peptides for Enhanced Brain Accumulation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that Tf‐PDA NPs combine a receptor‐mediated targeting with mild photothermal activation to enhance nanoparticle accumulation in the brain. NIR‐activated Tf‐PDA NPs increase BBB permeability to NPs in vitro and in vivo without inducing cytotoxicity or adverse immune responses.

Regulation of scavenger receptor class B type I in hamster liver and Hep3B cells by endotoxin and cytokines

Journal of Lipid Research, 2001
Multiple changes in HDL metabolism occur during infection and inflammation that could potentially impair the antiatherogenic functions of HDL. Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) promotes cholesterol efflux from peripheral cells and mediates ...

Relationship between Expression Levels and Atherogenesis in Scavenger Receptor Class B, Type I Transgenics [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2000
Both in vitro and in vivo studies of scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) have implicated it as a likely participant in the metabolism of HDL cholesterol. To investigate the effect of SR-BI on atherogenesis, we examined two lines of SR-BI transgenic mice with high (10-fold increases) and low (2-fold increases) SR-BI expression in an inbred mouse ...

Zebrafish as outgroup model to study evolution of scavenger receptor class B type I functions

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2023
Scavenger receptor class B1 (SCARB1) - also known as the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) receptor - is a multi-ligand scavenger receptor that is primarily expressed in liver and steroidogenic organs. This receptor is known for its function in reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) in mammals and hence disruption leads to a massive increase in HDL ...

Electrolyte Design for Fast‐Charging Lithium‐Based Batteries

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A decade of progress in fast‐charging electrolytes for lithium batteries is reviewed. Electrolyte design strategies spanning solvents, salts, additives, and advanced systems, such as localized high‐concentration electrolytes (LHCEs), are summarized. Advanced diagnostic tools for lithium plating and interphase chemistry are discussed, with perspectives ...

HDL modification by secretory phospholipase A2 promotes scavenger receptor class B type I interaction and accelerates HDL catabolism

Journal of Lipid Research, 2000
During inflammatory states plasma levels of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) are reduced. Secretory group IIa phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) is a cytokine-induced acute-phase enzyme associated with HDL. Transgenic mice
