Scavenger receptor class B type I-mediated uptake of serum cholesterol is essential for optimal adrenal glucocorticoid production

Journal of Lipid Research, 2009
Impaired scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI)-mediated uptake of HDL-cholesterol esters (HDL-CE) induces adrenal insufficiency in mice. Humans contain an alternative route of HDL-CE clearance, namely through the transfer by cholesteryl ester ...

Hepatitis C virus cell-cell transmission and resistance to direct-acting antiviral agents [PDF]

, 2014
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is transmitted between hepatocytes via classical cell entry but also uses direct cell-cell transfer to infect neighboring hepatocytes.

Regulation and splicing of scavenger receptor class B type I in human macrophages and atherosclerotic plaques

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2005
Background The protective role of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in the cardiovascular system is related to its role in the reverse transport of cholesterol from the arterial wall to the liver for subsequent excretion via the bile.

High Density Lipoproteins Inhibit Oxidative Stress-Induced Prostate Cancer Cell Proliferation [PDF]

, 2018
Recent evidence suggests that oxidative stress can play a role in the pathogenesis and the progression of prostate cancer (PCa). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation is higher in PCa cells compared to normal prostate epithelial cells and this ...

Regulation of scavenger receptor class B type I in hamster liver and Hep3B cells by endotoxin and cytokines

Journal of Lipid Research, 2001
Multiple changes in HDL metabolism occur during infection and inflammation that could potentially impair the antiatherogenic functions of HDL. Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) promotes cholesterol efflux from peripheral cells and mediates ...

Scavenger receptor-BI is a receptor for lipoprotein(a)

Journal of Lipid Research, 2013
Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) is a multi-ligand receptor that binds a variety of lipoproteins, including high density lipoprotein (HDL) and low density lipoprotein (LDL), but lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] has not been investigated as a possible ...

Hepatitis C virus relies on lipoproteins for its life cycle [PDF]

, 2016
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infects over 150 million people worldwide. In most cases, HCV infection becomes chronic causing liver disease ranging from fibrosis to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Developmental abnormalities in mouse embryos lacking the HDL receptor SR-BI [PDF]

Human Molecular Genetics, 2012
The srbi gene encodes a lipoprotein receptor with high affinity for high density lipoprotein that is mainly expressed in the liver and in steroidogenic tissues. Disruption of this gene in mice and mutations in humans lead to alterations in lipoprotein metabolism and/or fertility. During murine development, scavenger receptor class B member I (SR-BI) is

The predominance of one of the SR-BI isoforms is associated with increased esterified cholesterol levels not apoptosis in mink testis

Journal of Lipid Research, 2006
Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) contributes to HDL-mediated cellular cholesterol efflux and is a phagocytosis-inducing phospholipid phosphatidylserine receptor in rat Sertoli cells, whereas the spliced variant of the SR-B gene, SR-BII, is ...

Scavenger receptor class B type I reduces cholesterol absorption in cultured enterocyte CaCo-2 cells1

Journal of Lipid Research, 2004
Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) mediates selective uptake of cholesteryl esters from HDL as well as efflux of cellular free cholesterol to HDL. It is unclear whether the receptor is involved in intestinal cholesterol absorption.
