The macrophage scavenger receptor (SR-A) is a multifunctional receptor that is associated with several important pathological conditions, including atherosclerosis. In this study, we show, using a sterile peritonitis model, that it can regulate the inflammatory response. SR-A null mice display an increased initial granulocytic infiltration because of overproduction of the CXC chemokines, MIP-2 and keratinocyte-derived cytokine. This differential response is dependent upon particle internalization and can be mimicked by advanced glycation end product-BSA-conjugated latex beads. Thus SR-A is a nonactivating receptor, which is the first example of a pattern recognition receptor that serves to counter the activities of proinflammatory receptors and attenuates the production of specific chemokines to ensure an inflammatory response of the appropriate magnitude.

Abstract

The macrophage scavenger receptor (SR-A) is a multifunctional receptor that is associated with several important pathological conditions, including atherosclerosis. In this study, we show, using a sterile peritonitis model, that it can regulate the inflammatory response. SR-A null mice display an increased initial granulocytic infiltration because of overproduction of the CXC chemokines, MIP-2 and keratinocyte-derived cytokine. This differential response is dependent upon particle internalization and can be mimicked by advanced glycation end product-BSA-conjugated latex beads. Thus SR-A is a nonactivating receptor, which is the first example of a pattern recognition receptor that serves to counter the activities of proinflammatory receptors and attenuates the production of specific chemokines to ensure an inflammatory response of the appropriate magnitude.
