| Abstract | Receptor-mediated endocytosis of oxidized low density lipoprotein (OxLDL) by macrophages has been implicated in foam cell transformation in the process of atherogenesis. Although several scavenger receptor molecules, including class A scavenger receptors and CD36, have been identified as OxLDL receptors on macrophages, additional molecules on macrophages may also be involved in the recognition of OxLDL. From a cDNA library of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate-stimulated THP-1 cells, we isolated a cDNA encoding a novel protein designated SR-PSOX (scavenger receptor that bindsphosphatidylserine and oxidized lipoprotein), which acts as a receptor for OxLDL. SR-PSOX was a type I membrane protein consisting of 254 amino acids, expression of which was shown on human and murine macrophages with a molecular mass of 30 kDa. SR-PSOX could specifically bind with high affinity, internalize, and degrade OxLDL. The recognition of OxLDL was blocked by polyinosinic acid and dextran sulfate but not by acetylated low density lipoprotein. Taken together, SR-PSOX is a novel class of molecule belonging to the scavenger receptor family, which may play important roles in pathophysiology including atherogenesis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
