Selective upregulation of scavenger receptors in and around demyelinating areas in multiple sclerosis.

open access: yes, 2013
Autoantibodies and complement opsonization have been implicated in the process of demyelination in the major human CNS demyelinating disease multiple sclerosis (MS), but scavenger receptors (SRs) may also play pathogenetic roles. We characterized SR mRNA

Hepatoma cell density promotes claudin-1 and scavenger receptor BI expression and hepatitis C virus internalization. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) entry occurs via a pH- and clathrin-dependent endocytic pathway and requires a number of cellular factors, including CD81, the tight-junction proteins claudin 1 (CLDN1) and occludin, and scavenger receptor class B member I (SR-BI).

Expression of the class A macrophage scavenger receptor on specific subpopulations of murine dendritic cells limits their endotoxin response

open access: yes, 2006
Dendritic cells (DC) function at the interface of innate and acquired immunity and are uniquely sensitive to specific stimuli. Pattern recognition receptors (PRR) on these cells are critically important because of their ability to recognise and initiate ...

Human platelets exclusively bind oxidized low density lipoprotein showing no specificity for acetylated low density lipoprotein

open access: yes, 1999
The widely studied macrophage scavenger receptor system is known to bind both acetylated low density lipoprotein and oxidized low density lipoprotein. Although only the latter ligand has been shown to occur in vivo, acetylated low density lipoprotein is ...

Cell entry of hepatitis C virus requires a set of co-receptors that include the CD81 tetraspanin and the SR-B1 scavenger receptor

open access: yes, 2003
Several cell surface molecules have been proposed as receptor candidates, mediating cell entry of hepatitis C virus (HCV) on the basis of their physical association with virions or with soluble HCV E2 glycoproteins. However, due to the lack of infectious

Hepatitis C virus entry receptor dynamics and studies of platelet actin dynamics using lifeact-gfp: a potential role for actin nodules in filopodia formation

open access: yes, 2011
Virus entry into target cells is mediated by the attachment of viral glycoproteins to cell surface receptors. Entry of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) into hepatocytes has been shown to require viral glycoprotein dimer E1E2 and the target cell receptor CD81,

Genetic variations of the chemokine scavenger receptor D6 are associated with liver inflammation in chronic hepatitis C

open access: yes, 2008
Chronic hepatitis C (HCV) represents one of the most common chronic infections worldwide and is a major indication for liver transplantation. Liver inflammation is the main predictor of advanced fibrosis in HCV.

Characterisation of CD8neg and CD8+ human natural killer cell subsets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
NK cells are CD3neg CD56+ lymphocytes that constitute about 10-15% of peripheral blood lymphocytes. They have an innate ability to recognise and kill virus infected cells and tumour cells.
