Stabilin 1 and 2 are important regulators for cellular uptake of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins in zebrafish.

Background And Aims: Scavenger receptors form a superfamily of membrane-bound receptors that bind and internalize different types of ligands, including pro-atherogenic oxidized low-density lipoproteins (oxLDLs). In vitro studies have indicated a role for the liver sinusoidal endothelial cell receptors stabilin 1 (stab1) and 2 (stab2) in oxLDL clearance. In this study, we evaluated the potential role of stab1 and stab2 in lipoprotein uptake in zebrafish, an upcoming model for studying cholesterol metabolism and atherosclerosis.

Gender Stereotypes in Science Education Resources: A Visual Content Analysis.

More men are studying and working in science fields than women. This could be an effect of the prevalence of gender stereotypes (e.g.
