Nrf2, a PPARγ alternative pathway to promote CD36 expression on inflammatory macrophages: implication for malaria.
CD36 is the major receptor mediating nonopsonic phagocytosis of Plasmodium falciparum-parasitized erythrocytes by macrophages. Its expression on macrophages is mainly controlled by the nuclear receptor PPARγ. Here, we demonstrate that inflammatory processes negatively regulate CD36 expression on hum...
