Consequences of over-expression of rat Scavenger Receptor, SR-BI, in an adrenal cell model.

Nutrition & metabolism

Reaven E, Nomoto A, Cortez Y, Azhar S.
PMID: 17173681
Nutr Metab (Lond). 2006 Dec 15;3:43. doi: 10.1186/1743-7075-3-43.

BACKGROUND: The plasma membrane scavenger receptor, SR-BI, mediates the 'selective uptake' process by which cholesteryl esters (CE) from exogenously supplied HDL are taken up by target cells. Recent work suggests that dimer and higher order oligomeric forms of the...

Angiogenesis is essential for growth, progression, and metastasis of solid tumors. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)/VEGF receptor (VEGFR) and angiopoietin (ANGPT)/ tyrosine kinase endothelial (TEK) signaling plays an important role in regulating angiogenesis. Very little is known about the...

BACKGROUND: Thrombelastography has become increasingly used in liver transplantation. The implications of thrombelastography at various stages of liver transplantation, however, remain poorly understood. Our goal was to examine thrombelastography-based coagulopathy profiles in liver transplantation and determine whether preoperative thrombelastography...
