CD36 and SR-BI Are Involved in Cellular Uptake of Provitamin A Carotenoids by Caco-2 and HEK Cells, and Some of Their Genetic Variants Are Associated with Plasma Concentrations of These Micronutrients in Humans

Abstract: Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) and cluster determinant 36 (CD36) have been involved in cellular uptake of some provitamin A carotenoids. However, data are incomplete (e.g., there are no data on α-carotene), and it is not known whether genetic variants in their encoding genes can affect provitamin A carotenoid status. The objectives were 1) to assess the involvement of these scavenger receptors in cellular uptake of the main provitamin A carotenoids (i.e., β-carotene, α-carotene, and β-cryptoxanthin)… Show more

“…On the other hand, CD36 contributes to cellular uptake of b-carotene (35), and the mRNA levels of CD36 are higher in soleus muscle than in EDL muscle in rats (36). Furthermore, dietary b-carotene decreases the levels of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances, which are an indicator of lipid peroxidation, in soleus muscle, but not in gastrocnemius muscle (15), suggesting that b-carotene acts on soleus muscle as an antioxidant.…”

“…SCARB1 was first characterized in humans as a high-density lipoprotein receptor that mediates the selective uptake of cholesterol, and was subsequently demonstrated to have a role in the cellular uptake of a variety of lipids, including phospholipids, products of triglycerol hydrolysis, and the lipophilic vitamins A and D (28,35,36). SCARB1 homologs have now been implicated as mediators of carotenoid uptake in fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster), silkworms (Bombyx mori), salmon (Salmo salar), mice, and humans (24,26,(37)(38)(39)(40)(41). These findings suggest that SCARB1 is an ancient and conserved mechanism of carotenoid uptake in animals.…”

“…In addition to the simple diffusion mechanism for cellular uptake of carotenoids into intestinal epithelia, scavenger receptor class B type 1(SR-B1) and cluster determinant 36 (CD36) have recently been found to mediate facilitated diffusion, based on in vitro study using human intestinal cells (Borel et al 2013, During et al 2005. The in vivo intestinal absorption of β-carotene was lower in SR-B1 knockout mice than wild-type mice fed a high-fat and high-cholesterol diet (van Bennekum et al 2005).…”

“…Significant interindividual differences in carotenoid accumulation have been known to occur in human plasma. Recently, it was suggested that plasma levels of several provitamin A carotenoids are associated with genotypes of genes encoding SR-B1 and CD36 in human subjects (Borel et al 2013). Genetic variants of the proteins that mediate facilitated diffusion might be partly responsible for interindividual differences in carotenoid bioavailability.…”
