Regulation of ligand recognition and endocytosis by the LOX-1 scavenger receptor
Lectin-like oxidised low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1) is a scavenger receptor that binds a wide range of ligands including oxidised low-density lipoprotein (OxLDL). LOX-1-mediated recognition of OxLDL can cause endothelial dysfunction and apoptosis. LOX-1 is implicated in foam cell formati...
