Scavenger receptors class A (SR-A) have been hypothesized to regulate the development of
atherosclerotic lesions through recognition of modified low density lipoprotein (LDL) and
macrophage adhesion to substrata. Supporting data have been collected from studies using
the monoclonal antibody 2F8, an antibody developed from the BALB/c strain-derived
macrophage cell line, RAW. 264. Although 2F8 immunostained both cultured peritoneal
macrophages (MPM) and thymic macrophages from Swiss, BALB/c, and DBA/2 mice, no …
