Insulin-induced lipid body accumulation is accompanied by lipid remodelling in model mast cells
Adipocyte, 2019 Mast cell lipid bodies are key to initiation, maintenance and resolution of inflammatory responses in tissue. Mast cell lines, primary bone marrow-derived mast cells and peripheral blood basophils present a ‘steatotic’ phenotype in response to chronic ...

Genotypic and Lipid Analyses of Strains From the Archaeal Genus Halorubrum Reveal Insights Into Their Taxonomy, Divergence, and Population Structure [PDF]
, 2018 To gain a better understanding of how divergence occurs, and how taxonomy can benefit from studying natural populations, we isolated and examined 25 closely related Halorubrum strains obtained from different hypersaline communities and compared them to ...

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

International 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 ...

Carvacrol alters the membrane phospholipids in erythromycin-resistant Streptococcus pyogenes
Phytomedicine PlusBackground: Phospholipids are significant constituents of bacterial membranes. Bacteria can alter their cytoplasmic membrane fatty acid composition in response to changing environmental stress conditions. Carvacrol, a mono-terpenoid phenol, has excellent

Ramoplanin at bactericidal concentrations induces bacterial membrane depolarization in Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
, 2014 Ramoplanin is an actinomycetes-derived antibiotic with broad-spectrum activity against Gram-positive bacteria that has been evaluated in clinical trials for the treatment of gastrointestinal vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) and Clostridium ...

Cardiolipin and mitochondrial carriers
Biochimica 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).

Plant Peptides on the Rise: From Historical Insight to Future Applications
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant peptides constitute a rapidly expanding class of signalling molecules essential to plant physiology, mediating key processes such as development, stress adaptation, and immune responses. This review traces the history of plant peptide research, from the seminal discovery of systemin to the recent identification of non‐canonical peptides (

Phospholipids of five Indian food fishes [PDF]
, 1971 The phospholipids of five Indian food fishes (sardine, pomfret, mackerel, anchovies and thrissocles) were fractionated quantitatively using column and thin layer chromatographic techniques and the results reported in this ...
