Background: The scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI), as the high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) receptor, is a key component in the reverse cholesterol transportation. The objective of this study was to assess the association between exon1 (G→A) polymorphism of SR-BI gene and lipid profiles among the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study (TLGS) population. Methods: This cross-se...
متن کاملLiver receptor homolog 1 controls the expression of the scavenger receptor class B type I.
The scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI), which mediates selective cellular cholesterol uptake from high-density lipoproteins (HDLs), plays a key role in reverse cholesterol transport. The orphan nuclear receptor liver receptor homolog 1 (LRH-1) and SR-BI are co-expressed in liver and ovary, suggesting that LRH-1 might control the expression of SR-BI in these tissues. LRH-1 induces human a...
متن کاملSterol regulation of scavenger receptor class B type I in macrophages.
Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) is expressed in macrophages, but its role in sterol trafficking in these cells remains controversial. We examined the effect of sterol loading on SR-BI expression in human monocytes/macrophages, mouse peritoneal macrophages, and a cultured mouse macrophage cell line (J774 cells). Sterol loading using either acetylated LDL or 25-hydroxycholesterol result...

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 cholesteryl ester transfer protein in plasma and having been demonstrated to be susceptible to atherosclerosis. In this report, we describe for t...
متن کاملRegulation of scavenger receptor, class B, type I, a high density lipoprotein receptor, in liver and steroidogenic tissues of the rat.
The scavenger receptor, class B, type I (SR-BI) binds HDL and mediates the selective transfer of cholesteryl esters from HDL to cultured cells. The tissue distribution of SR-BI in mice suggests that this receptor may deliver HDL-cholesterol to the liver and to nonplacental steroidogenic tissues. To examine the role of SR-BI in vivo, we determined its tissue and cell type-specific expression pat...
