Macrophages display a diverse set of ‘scavenger receptors’ that bind bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS), phospholipids inappropriately exposed on apoptotic cells and oxidized forms of LDL ...
Omega 3 fatty acids and statins Decrease modified LDL macrophage uptake by scavenger receptors (Box 11) Decrease native LDL macrophage uptake by pinocytosis. Decrease infections and inflammation ...
Phagocytosis of oxPL in human macrophages involves α v β 3 & high ... Incubation of oxPL with labeled LDL resulted in enhanced uptake of the latter, which was perhaps related to electrostatic ...
