Novel Functions of Endothelial Scavenger Receptor Class B Type I

Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 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-

Class B Scavenger Receptors, Caveolae and Cholesterol Homeostasis

Trends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 1999
Class B scavenger receptors are predominantly localized to cholesterol and sphingomyelin-enriched domains within the plasma membrane, called caveolae. Caveolae and their associated protein, caveolin, have been implicated in cholesterol trafficking and in the regulation of cellular cholesterol homeostasis. Recent studies indicate that scavenger receptor,

Scavenger receptor class B type I and immune dysfunctions

Current Opinion in Endocrinology, Diabetes & Obesity, 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.

HDL scavenger receptor class B type I and platelet function

Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2011
HDL cholesterol levels have been inversely correlated with thrombosis and HDL has been shown to mediate various antithrombotic effects. However, molecular mechanisms underlying the suppressing effect of HDL on platelet reactivity are not completely understood.
