Application

BLT-1 (Block lipid transport-1) has been used as an inhibitor of the SR-BI (scavenger receptor, class B, type I) mediated lipid transfer to determine if miR-223-3p export from polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) to high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) is dependent on SR-BI-mediated lipid flux. It has also been used as a SR-BI inhibitor to study the effect of HDL on osteocalcin (OCN) expression in monocyte cell lines through SR-B1.
BLT-1 may be used to study cell signaling pathways that have role in cholesterol influx and efflux.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Block lipid transport-1 (BLT-1) is a specific inhibitor of the SR-BI (Scavenger receptor, class B, type I) mediated lipid transfer. The compound inhibits both cellular selective lipid uptake of HDL cholesteryl ether and efflux of cellular cholesterol to HDL.

Scavenger receptor BI (SR-BI) is a classic high-density lipoprotein (HDL) receptor, which mediates selective lipid uptake from HDL cholesterol esters (HDL-C). Apolipoprotein M (ApoM), as a component of HDL particles, could influence preβ-HDL formation and cholesterol efflux. The aim of

Studies suggest that inflammation impairs reverse cholesterol transport (RCT). We investigated whether serum amyloid A (SAA) contributes to this impairment using an established macrophage-to-feces RCT model. Wild-type (WT) mice and mice deficient in SAA1.1 and SAA2.1 (SAAKO) were injected intraperitoneally

Migration of mast cells is essential for their recruitment within target tissues where they play an important role in innate and adaptive immune responses. These processes rely on the ability of mast cells to recognize appropriate chemotactic stimuli and react
