Identification of the haemoglobin scavenger receptor
Nature, 2001Intravascular haemolysis is a physiological phenomenon as well as a severe pathological complication when accelerated in various autoimmune, infectious (such as malaria) and inherited (such as sickle cell disease) disorders. Haemoglobin released into plasma is captured by the acute phase protein haptoglobin, which is depleted from plasma during ...

Scavenger receptors in innate immunity
Current Opinion in Immunology, 1996Scavenger receptors are cell-surface proteins expressed by mammalian monocytes and macrophages and by invertebrate hemocytes, among other cell types. They exhibit distinctive ligand-binding properties, recognizing a wide range of ligands that include microbial surface constituents and intact microbes.

Scavenger receptors: Implications in atherothrombotic disorders
The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2011Scavenger receptors are modified lipoprotein binding receptors, expressed on the surface of a variety of cells including endothelial, macrophages and platelets. The most extensively studied class B scavenger receptors comprise of CD36 and SR-BI and have been found to bind to native and modified LDL.

Scavenger receptor Bl and cholesterol trafficking
Current Opinion in Lipidology, 1999Scavenger receptor BI (SR-BI) mediates the selective uptake of HDL cholesteryl ester into steroidogenic cells and the liver and is a major determinant of the plasma HDL concentration in the mouse. Recent studies indicate that SR-BI also alters the metabolism of apolipoprotein B-containing particles and influences the development of atherosclerosis in ...

Scavenger Receptors, Oxidized LDL, and Atherosclerosis
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2001Abstract: Oxidized LDL (OxLDL) competes with oxidatively damaged and apoptotic cells for binding to mouse peritoneal macrophages, implying the presence of one or more common domains. However, the nature of the ligands involved has not been determined.

Scavenger receptors in homeostasis and immunity
Nature Reviews Immunology, 2013Scavenger receptors were originally identified by their ability to recognize and to remove modified lipoproteins; however, it is now appreciated that they carry out a striking range of functions, including pathogen clearance, lipid transport, the transport of cargo within the cell and even functioning as taste receptors. The large repertoire of ligands

Nihon rinsho. Japanese journal of clinical medicine, 2000
After the proposal of scavenger pathway hypothesis, a family of genes have been discovered. Here we show the precise properties of the first cloned scavenger receptor class A type I and II. Then the profiles of other members of scavenger receptors including lectin receptors are shown briefly.

Monitoring Scavenging Activity of Chemokine Receptors
2016Migration and positioning of cells is fundamental for complex functioning of multicellular organisms. During an immune response, cells are recruited from remote distances to a distinct location. Cells that are passively transported leave the circulation stimulated by locally produced signals and follow chemotactic cues to reach specific destinations ...
