[HTML][HTML] Human CD36 is a high affinity receptor for the native lipoproteins HDL, LDL, and VLDL

Mouse and hamster SR-BI glycoproteins and their putative human counterpart CLA-I are so
far the only scavenger receptors known to bind both native and modified lipoproteins. CD36,
a multigland glycoprotein structurally related to SR-BI and CLA-1, has been reported to bind
oxidized low density lipoprotein (OxLDL) and acetylated LDL (AcLDL). In this report, we
have studied the ability of CD36 to bind native lipoproteins. By transient expression of
human CD36 in mammalian and insect cells, we demonstrate that CD36 is a high affinity …
