Influence of the HDL Receptor SR-BI on Lipoprotein Metabolism and Atherosclerosis [PDF]

Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2003
The scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) was the first molecularly well-defined cell-surface HDL receptor to be described. SR-BI mediates selective HDL cholesterol uptake by formation of a productive lipoprotein/receptor complex, which requires specific structural domains and conformation states of apolipoprotein A-I present in HDL particles.

Automating Vascular Biology: An End‐to‐End Automated Workflow for High‐Throughput Blood Vessel‐on‐a‐Chip Production and Multi‐Site Validation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
AngioPlate384 is a 384‐well open‐top platform that automates production of more than 100 miniaturized, perfusable blood vessels embedded in hydrogel and supported by stromal cells. Stromal‐endothelial co‐culture strengthens blood vessel barrier function and yields responses useful for translational planning. Scalable and automation‐ready, it suits drug

Apolipoprotein A-I conformation markedly influences HDL interaction with scavenger receptor BI

Journal of Lipid Research, 2001
Apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) is an important ligand for the high density lipoprotein (HDL) scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI). SR-BI binds both free and lipoprotein-associated apoA-I, but the effects of particle size, composition, and ...

Molecular characterization of rabbit scavenger receptor class B types I and II

Journal of Lipid Research, 2004
To further elucidate the role of scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) in reverse cholesterol transport and in atherogenesis, we performed studies in the rabbit, an animal model displaying a lipoprotein profile similar to that of human, expressing ...
