Interaction of scavenger receptor class B type I with peroxisomal targeting receptor Pex5p

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2003
Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) is an HDL receptor that mediates selective HDL lipid uptake. Peroxisomes play an important role in lipid metabolism and peroxisomal targeting signal type 1 (PTS1)-containing proteins are translocated to peroxisomes by the peroxisomal targeting import receptor, Pex5p.

Scavenger Receptor Classes A and B: Their Roles in Atherogenesis and the Metabolism of Modified LDL and HDL

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2000
Abstract: Scavenger‐receptor class A has been held responsible for the clearance of modified LDL from the blood circulation. However, in mice deficient in scavenger‐receptor class A, the decay in vivo of acetylated LDL (t1/2 < 2 min), as well as tissue distribution and liver uptake (at 5 min 77.4 ±6 4.6% of the injected dose) are not significantly ...

Scavenger receptor class B type 1 gene polymorphisms and female fertility

Current Opinion in Endocrinology, Diabetes & Obesity, 2012
Multiple studies have demonstrated a role for scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SR-B1) in female fertility. Recent studies have implicated specific SR-B1 gene polymorphisms in decreased progesterone production and suboptimal fertility outcomes.The lipoprotein receptor SR-B1 has been known to mediate selective uptake of lipids into steroidogenic ...

Developmental expression and immune role of the class B scavenger receptor cd36 in zebrafish

Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 2016
CD36 is a transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the scavenger receptor class B family which plays crucial roles in innate immunity. Although CD36 is widely documented in mammals, the study of its functions in fish is still limited. Here we report the identification of a zebrafish cd36 homologue.

Activation of the rat scavenger receptor class B type I gene by PPARα

Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2006
Peroxisomal proliferator activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) is activated by fibrate drugs which are known to protect against atherosclerosis. The present study examines the effects of PPARalpha on SR-BI expression. For this study, a rat SR-BI promoter-luciferase reporter gene construct was co-transfected into different cell lines with expression ...

Scavenger receptor class B type I polymorphisms and peripheral arterial disease

Metabolism, 2007
Genetic variations of the scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) have been demonstrated to be associated with plasma lipid parameters, anthropomorphic parameters, and coronary artery disease. We determined the frequency of 3 single-nucleotide polymorphisms within the SR-BI gene (SCARB1) in 354 patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and 354 ...

Expression of scavenger receptor class B type I in gallbladder columnar epithelium

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2002
AbstractBackgroundThe lipid content of bile may be modified by the gallbladder epithelium. Recent studies indicate that cholesterol can be absorbed from bile and that this can be enhanced by apolipoprotein (apo) A‐I. SR‐BI is a multifunctional receptor capable of binding a wide array of native or modified lipoproteins, phospholipid or bile acid ...

Scavenger Receptor Class B Type I Modulates Epileptic Seizures and Receptor α2δ-1 Expression

Neurochemical Research
Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) is abundant in adult mouse and human brains, but its function in the central nervous system (CNS) remains unclear. This study explored the role of SR-BI in epilepsy and its possible underlying mechanism. Expression patterns of SR-BI in the brains of mice with kainic acid (KA)-induced epilepsy were detected ...
