CD36/SR-B3 Products

Description

CD36 is a cell surface class B scavenger receptor. CD36 is preferentially found within lipid rafts, which facilitates its association with receptors, signalling and adapter molecules. CD36 binds to collagen, thrombospondin, anionic phospholipids and oxidized LDL. CD36 may also function as a cell adhesion molecule and directly mediates cyto adherence of Plasmodium falciparum parasitized erythrocytes. Finally, CD36 binds long chain fatty acids and may function in the transport and/or as a regulator of fatty acid transport. CD36 has been found to be involved in fatty acid and glucose metabolism, heart disease, taste, and dietary fat processing in the intestine. It may also play roles in glucose intolerance, atherosclerosis, arterial hypertension, diabetes, cardiomyopathy and Alzheimer's disease. CD 36 antibodies are useful tools for studing clucose and fat metabolism or any of the aforementioned diseases.
