N-acylated peptides derived from human lactoferricin perturb organization of cardiolipin and phosphatidylethanolamine in cell membranes and induce defects in Escherichia coli cell division.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Two types of recently described antibacterial peptides derived from human lactoferricin, either nonacylated or N-acylated, were studied for their different interaction with membranes of Escherichia coli in vivo and in model systems.

Investigation into the delivery and evaluation of a unique Avena sativa (Oat) Lipid Extract on skin barrier using LC‒MS/MS, Raman spectroscopy, immunostaining analysis and skin efficacy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Oat lipids are rich in ceramides. In this investigation, we analysed the delivery of a specific Oat Lipid Extract derived from Avena sativa, comprising ‘skin identical’ ratios of fatty acids, ceramides and cholesterol/sterol. This investigation is the first reported investigation of oat lipids utilizing Raman spectroscopy for the ...

The physicochemical properties of cardiolipin bilayers and cardiolipin-containing lipid membranes

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2009
In this review article, we summarize the current state of biophysical knowledge concerning the phase behavior and organization of cardiolipin (CL) and CL-containing phospholipid bilayer model membranes. We first briefly consider the occurrence and distribution of CL in biological membranes and its probable biological functions therein. We next consider

Comparative lipid profiling dataset of the inflammation-induced optic nerve regeneration. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In adult mammals, retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) fail to regenerate following damage. As a result, RGCs die after acute injury and in progressive degenerative diseases such as glaucoma; this can lead to permanent vision loss and, eventually, blindness ...

Cardiolipin and mitochondrial carriers

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2009
Members of the mitochondrial carrier family interact with cardiolipin (CL) as evident from a variety of functional and structural effects. CL stabilises carrier proteins on isolation with detergents, with the P(i) carrier as the prime example. CL is required for transport in reconstituted vesicles, prime examples are the P(i)- and ADP/ATP carrier (AAC).

Structure and function of bacterial dynamin-like proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Membrane dynamics are essential for numerous cellular processes in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. In eukaryotic cells, membrane fusion and fission are often catalyzed by large GTPases of the dynamin protein family. These proteins couple GTP hydrolysis

Long‐term remission of type B insulin resistance syndrome with immunotherapy: A case report

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report long‐term remission in a patient with type B insulin resistance achieved with a combination of immunotherapies. A 55‐year‐old Japanese man presented with nocturnal hypoglycemia and cytopenia. He also had postprandial hyperglycemia due to severe insulin resistance, which was difficult to manage using high‐dose insulin and recombinant ...
