The effects of exogenous lipid on THP-1 cells : an in vitro model of airway aspiration? [PDF]
Chronic inflammatory diseases of the airways are associated with gastro-oesophageal reflux (GOR) and aspiration events. The observation of lipid laden macrophages (LLM) within the airway may indicate aspiration secondary to GOR.

Regulation of Platelet Function by Class B Scavenger Receptors in Hyperlipidemia [PDF]
Platelets constitutively express class B scavenger receptors CD36 and SR-BI, 2 closely related pattern recognition receptors best known for their roles in lipoprotein and lipid metabolism. The biological role of scavenger receptors in platelets is poorly understood.

SR-BI-directed HDL-cholesteryl ester hydrolysis
We have examined the metabolic fate of HDL cholesteryl ester (CE) delivered to cells expressing scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI). Comparison of SR-BI with a related class B scavenger receptor, CD36, showed a greater uptake and a more rapid and ...

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

Transcriptional Regulation of Rat Scavenger Receptor Class B Type I Gene [PDF]
The scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) mediates the selective transport of lipids from high density lipoprotein to cells and plays an important role in the reverse uptake of cholesterol to the liver and in the delivery of substrates for steroidogenesis in steroidogenic organs.

Soluble CD5 and CD6: Lymphocytic Class I Scavenger Receptors as Immunotherapeutic Agents
CD5 and CD6 are closely related signal-transducing class I scavenger receptors mainly expressed on lymphocytes. Both receptors are involved in the modulation of the activation and differentiation cell processes triggered by clonotypic antigen-specific ...

The class A scavenger receptor SR-A/CD204 and the class B scavenger receptor CD36 regulate immune functions of macrophages differently [PDF]
SR-A/CD204 and CD36 are major receptors responsible for oxidized lipoproteins uptake by macrophages in atherosclerotic plaques. Both receptors also share the role as receptors for different pathogens, but studies on their signaling have been hampered by the lack of selective ligands.
