Induction of adrenal scavenger receptor BI and increased high density lipoprotein-cholesteryl ether uptake by in vivo inhibition of hepatic lipase [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Hepatic lipase (HL) and scavenger receptor type B class I (SR-BI) have both been implicated in high density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesteryl ester uptake in cholesterol-utilizing tissues.

Estrogen Inhibits LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein) Transcytosis by Human Coronary Artery Endothelial Cells via GPER (G-Protein–Coupled Estrogen Receptor) and SR-BI (Scavenger Receptor Class B Type 1)

open access: yesArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology, 2018
Objective— The atheroprotective effects of estrogen are independent of circulating lipid levels. Whether estrogen regulates transcytosis of LDL (low-density lipoprotein) across the coronary endothelium is unknown.

Rare variant in scavenger receptor BI raises HDL cholesterol and increases risk of coronary heart disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Scavenger receptor BI (SR-BI) is the major receptor for high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (HDL-C). In humans, high amounts of HDL-C in plasma are associated with a lower risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). Mice that have depleted Scarb1 (SR-BI

Scavenger receptor class B type I localizes to a late endosomal compartment

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2008
Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) has an established role in mediating the selective uptake of cholesterol from HDL in hepatocytes, steroidogenic cells, and other tissues.

Influence of HDL-cholesterol-elevating drugs on the in vitro activity of the HDL receptor SR-BI

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2007
Treatment of atherosclerotic disease often focuses on reducing plasma LDL-cholesterol or increasing plasma HDL-cholesterol. We examined in vitro the effects on HDL receptor [scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI)] activity of three classes of clinical

High-density lipoprotein contribute to G0-G1/S transition in Swiss NIH/3T3 fibroblasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
High density lipoproteins (HDLs) play a crucial role in removing excess cholesterol from peripheral tissues. Although their concentration is lower during conditions of high cell growth rate (cancer and infections), their involvement during cell ...

Hepatic lipase mediates an increase in selective uptake of HDL-associated cholesteryl esters by cells in culture independent from SR-BI

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2003
Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) mediates the selective uptake of HDL cholesteryl esters (CEs) by the liver. Hepatic lipase (HL) promotes this lipid uptake independent from lipolysis.

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

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

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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...
