Biochem/physiol Actions

Oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor 1 (OLR1), also referred as Lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1), acts as a scavenger receptor for oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL). It is essential for formation and progression of atherosclerotic plaques. Therefore, mutation in the gene increases the risk of susceptibility to atherosclerotic-related diseases. In addition, genetic variation in the gene leads to myocardial infarction. Serum concentration of OLR1 serves as an efficient biomarker of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).
