MeSH Heading: Receptors, Scavenger
Tree Number(s): D12.776.543.750.705.940; D12.776.543.750.710.450.750
Unique ID: D051116
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D051116
Annotation: general; prefer specifics
Scope Note: A large group of structurally diverse cell surface receptors that mediate endocytic uptake of modified LIPOPROTEINS. Scavenger receptors are expressed by MYELOID CELLS and some ENDOTHELIAL CELLS, and were originally characterized based on their ability to bind acetylated LOW-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS. They can also bind a variety of other polyanionic ligand. Certain scavenger receptors can internalize micro-organisms as well as apoptotic cells.
Entry Term(s): Acetyl-LDL Receptor; Acetyl-LDL Receptors; Acetylated LDL Receptor; Macrophage Scavenger Receptor; Macrophage Scavenger Receptors; Receptor, Acetyl-LDL; Receptor, Macrophage Scavenger; Scavenger Receptor; Scavenger Receptors; Scavenger Receptors, Macrophage
