Identification of Three Genes Encoding for the Late Acyltransferases of Lipid A in Cronobacter sakazakii

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2013
Lipid A, the hydrophobic anchor of lipopolysaccharide, is an essential component in the outer membrane of most Gram-negative bacteria. Food-borne pathogen Cronobacter sakazakii synthesizes two lipid A species, differing by the length of the secondary ...

CD8+ T cell memory is sustained in mice by hepatic stellate cells

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
HSC role in memory CD8+ T cell maintenance. Abstract Background and Aims Long‐lasting immunological memory is the ultimate goal of vaccination. Homeostatic maintenance of memory CD8+ cytotoxic T cells (MemCD8TCs) is thought to be mediated by IL‐15/IL‐15R heterodimer (15HD)‐expressing myeloid cells.

Fatty acids of Helicobacter pylori lipoproteins CagT and Lpp20

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
Bacterial lipoproteins are post-translationally modified by the addition of acyl chains that anchor the protein to bacterial membranes. This modification includes two ester-linked and one amide-linked acyl chain on lipoproteins from Gram-negative ...

Differential intracellular management of fatty acids impacts on metabolic stress-stimulated glucose uptake in cardiomyocytes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Stimulation of glucose uptake in response to ischemic metabolic stress is important for cardiomyocyte function and survival. Chronic exposure of cardiomyocytes to fatty acids (FA) impairs the stimulation of glucose uptake, whereas induction of lipid ...

Effects of impaired steryl ester biosynthesis on tomato growth and developmental processes

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Steryl esters (SE) are stored in cytoplasmic lipid droplets and serve as a reservoir of sterols that helps to maintain free sterols (FS) homeostasis in cell membranes throughout plant growth and development, and provides the FS needed to meet the high ...

Engineering Nanoplatforms for Alzheimer's Disease Detection via Biomolecular Corona Proteomic and Lipidomic Profiling

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Engineered nanoparticles capture disease‐specific biomolecular coronas that uncover hidden molecular features of Alzheimer's disease. Combined proteomic and lipidomic analyses reveal a characteristic shift in ribosomal machinery and energy metabolism, generating a multiomic fingerprint that supports accurate disease detection and opens new ...

Emergence of highly profibrotic and proinflammatory Lrat+Fbln2+ HSC subpopulation in alcoholic hepatitis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Lrat+ quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSC) give rise to Lrat+Fbln2+ activated HSC (aHSC) in alcohol‐associated hepatitis and this subpopulation is highly profibrotic, inflammatory, and immunoregulatory based on their single cell transcriptomic profile. Abstract Background and Aims Relative roles of HSCs and portal fibroblasts in alcoholic hepatitis (

Lysophospholipid acyltransferases: Novel potential regulators of the inflammatory response and target for new drug discovery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Molecular and biochemical analyses of membrane phospholipids have revealed that, in addition to their physico-chemical properties, the metabolites of phospholipids play a crucial role in the recognition, signalling and responses of cells to a variety of ...

High-level production of nervonic acid in the oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica by systematic metabolic engineering

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Nervonic acid benefits the treatment of neurological diseases and the health of brain. In this study, we employed the oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica to overproduce nervonic acid oil by systematic metabolic engineering.

GhGPAT12/25 Are Essential for the Formation of Anther Cuticle and Pollen Exine in Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferases (GPATs), critical for multiple biological processes like male fertility, have been extensively characterized. However, their precise functions and underlying regulatory mechanism in cotton anther development are ...
