MARCO, an innate activation marker of macrophages, is a class A scavenger receptor for <i>Neisseria meningitidis</i>

8 Mar 2006

Abstract excerpt

The scavenger receptor-A I/II (SR-A) and macrophage receptor with collagenous domain (MARCO) share a common domain organisation and ligand repertoire, including selected polyanions and gram-positive and -negative organisms, but differ in fine specificity of ligand binding, tissue distribution and regulation. Neisseria meningitidis (NM) is a selective ligand for SR-A, but there is evidence for an additional...
