Antigens, CD36 |
|
| Adipocyte Membrane Protein p88; CD36 Antigen; CD36 Antigen (Collagen Type I Receptor, Thrombospondin Receptor); CD36 Fatty Acid Transporter; CD36 Protein; FAT (Fatty Acid Translocase) - CD36 Antigen; GPIIIb Platelet Glycoprotein | |
| Leukocyte differentiation antigens and major platelet membrane glycoproteins present on MONOCYTES; ENDOTHELIAL CELLS; PLATELETS; and mammary EPITHELIAL CELLS. They play major roles in CELL ADHESION; SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION; and regulation of angiogenesis. CD36 is a receptor for THROMBOSPONDINS and can act as a scavenger receptor that recognizes and transports oxidized LIPOPROTEINS and FATTY ACIDS. | |
