Identification of Neisseria meningitidis nonlipopolysaccharide ligands for class A macrophage scavenger receptor by using a novel assay.
Macrophages (Mphi) may play an important role in the pathogenesis of invasive meningococcal infection. Previously, we have shown that the class A Mphi scavenger receptor (SR-A) is a major nonopsonic receptor for Neisseria meningitidis on Mphi. SR-A contributes to host defense by binding proinflammat...
