Moreover, as expected from the known expression and regulation of this scavenger receptor in endothelial cells (9), significant amounts of OLR1 was also detected in the nonmacrophage (i.e., MAC-3−) cell population at the plaque surface of the more hyperlipidemic model of human atherosclerosis (Fig. 5A and fig. The gene discussed is OLR1; the disease is atherosclerosis.
