Macrophage binding of oxidatively damaged red blood cells (OxRBC) and apoptotic thymocytes correlates in many instances with a loss of phospholipid bilayer asymmetry, i.e., with an increase in expression of phosphatidylserine on the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane. Oxidatively modified LDL (OxLDL) can compete for the binding of these ligands to macrophages. However, the receptor(s) responsible remains to be identified. The present studies show that mouse peritoneal macrophages totally lacking scavenger receptor A (SRA) bound OxRBC just as effectively as wild-type macrophages, whereas their binding and uptake of acetyl LDL was reduced by more than 80%. Binding of apoptotic thymocytes and binding of OxLDL were also reduced, but only by 20–30%. We conclude that SRA is not involved in the recognition of phosphatidylserine-rich membranes but contributes to the binding of OxLDL and apoptotic thymocytes. The binding of OxRBC was almost totally calcium-dependent, whereas the binding of apoptotic thymocytes was not, suggesting that the mechanisms involved in their uptake by macrophages under these conditions were different.
