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.

TaRIP2 Positively Regulates Wheat Pollen Wall Formation Through MYB80‐Controlled Lipid Metabolism

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Male‐sterile genes and mutants are critical for hybrid seed production in monocotyledonous crops. Lipids are essential structural components of male reproductive organs, such as the anther and pollen. Here, we show that the pollen‐preferential gene TaRIP2 is essential for wheat anther development and pollen formation. RT‐qPCR analysis revealed

A stage‐dependent seed defense response to explain efficient seed transmission of Xanthomonas citri pv. fuscans to common bean

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
Abstract Although seed represents an important means of plant pathogen dispersion, the seed–pathogen dialogue remains largely unexplored. A multiomic approach was performed at different seed developmental stages of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) during asymptomatic colonization by Xanthomonas citri pv.

Docosahexaenoic acid accumulates in cardiolipin and enhances HT-29 cell oxidant production

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1998
The objective of this study was to investigate membrane fatty acids for their effects on mitochondrial function in live cells. Mitochondrial potential and oxidant production were measured in human colonic adenocarcinoma (HT-29) cells with membranes ...

Harnessing blue light photobiomodulation for cancer therapy: Evidence from a systematic review

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Conventional treatments for various types of cancer are often associated with tumor recurrence and aggressiveness. Photobiomodulation with blue light (BL; 450–470 nm) emerges as a promising alternative with antitumor effects. This systematic review, with 37 in vitro and in vivo studies from 2002 to 2024, revealed that BL reduces cell viability ...

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

Mitophagy in skeletal muscle: Impact of ageing, exercise and disuse

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Skeletal muscle plays an important role in whole‐body health, quality of life and regulation of metabolism. The maintenance of a healthy mitochondrial pool is imperative for the preservation of skeletal muscle quality and is mediated through mitochondrial quality control consisting of mitochondrial turnover mediated by a balance between ...
