Identification of high density lipoprotein as a novel ligand for scavenger receptor A in macrophages
Macrophages, the culprits of chronic inflammatory metabolic diseases, such as atherosclerosis, are instrumental in orchestrating innate immune responses and lipid homeostasis. Scavenger receptor A (SR-A), a myeloid-restricted clearance receptor for oxidized Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL), contributes...
