A Drosophila class C scavenger receptor (dSR-C1) also has a mucin-like structure.

They include opsonin receptors, scavenger receptors, and Toll-like receptors.

Subsequent studies led to the identification of various scavenger receptors and the cloning of the pattern recognition receptor, Dectin-1.

Such modifications may lessen the particles' ability to be cleared by the classic LDL receptor and/or increase their ability to interact with so-called "scavenger" receptors.

The net result is shunting of LDL particles to these scavenger receptors.

Monocytes pass between adjacent endothelial cells, proliferate, and differentiate into macrophages that take up oxidised LDL through their scavenger receptors.

This protein may play a role as a scavenger receptor.

Other human scavenger receptors related to CD36 are SCARB1 and SCARB2 proteins.

CD163 is a scavenger receptor for the hemoglobin-haptoglobin complex.

To note, the chemokine binding protein D6 had previously been named CCR9, but this molecule is a scavenger receptor not a true (signaling) chemokine receptor.
