The trafficking deficit exhibited by SR-A+/−TLR4+/− BMDC is specific to SR-A-mediated phagocytosis and does not impair SR-A-mediated endocytic uptake. (A) WT, TLR4−/−, SR-A−/−, and SR-A−/−TLR4−/− BMDC were incubated with Alexa488-labeled AcLDL for 20 min at 37°C and analyzed quantitatively by FACS for endocytic uptake of AcLDL. SR-A−/− and SR-A−/−TLR4−/− BMDC exhibited significant (*, P<0.01) deficits in AcLDL uptake compared with WT cells, and TLR4−/− BMDC were similar to WT BMDC. (B) WT, TLR4+/−, SR-A+/−, and SR-A+/−TLR4+/− BMDC were treated as in A and analyzed for AcLDL uptake by FACS. Single heterozygous genotypes and the double heterozygous BMDC exhibited WT levels of AcLDL uptake.
