GRP78 inhibits macrophage adhesion via SR-A
Class A scavenger receptor (SR-A) plays an important role in macrophage adhesion. However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. We previously found that 78 kDa glucose-regulated protein (GRP78) inhibited SR-A-mediated ligand internalization into macrophage by binding to SR-A. The aim of the stu...

Sumario: | Class A scavenger receptor (SR-A) plays an important role in macrophage adhesion. However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. We previously found that 78 kDa glucose-regulated protein (GRP78) inhibited SR-A-mediated ligand internalization into macrophage by binding to SR-A. The aim of the study was to investigate whether GRP78 could regulate SR-A-mediated cell adhesion. We demonstrated that GRP78 bound directly to SR-A by fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) assay. Overexpression of GRP78 inhibited macrophage adhesion via SR-A. These results suggest that GRP78 may act as an inhibitor of macrophage adhesion via SR-A. |
