BIOSYNTHESIS AND FUNCTION OF THE SULFOLIPID SULFOQUINOVOSYL DIACYLGLYCEROL

open access: yes, 1998
▪ Abstract  The sulfolipid sulfoquinovosyl diacylglycerol is an abundant sulfur-containing nonphosphorous glycerolipid that is specifically associated with photosynthetic membranes of higher plants, mosses, ferns, algae, and most photosynthetic bacteria.

Impact of incretin analogues on lipid and lipoprotein metabolism in obesity and diabetes

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Incretin‐based therapies have gained momentum as a key strategy for reducing cardiovascular risk in individuals with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes (T2D). It remains unclear whether the cardiovascular benefits reflect a direct reduction in atherogenic lipoproteins—namely, low‐density lipoproteins (LDL), very low‐density lipoproteins (VLDL) and

Diacylglycerol breakdown in plasma membranes of bovine chromaffin cells is a two-step mechanism mediated by a diacylglycerol lipase and a monoacylglycerol lipase.

open access: yes, 1987
The recently identified diacylglycerol lipase activity in membranes of chromaffin cells from bovine adrenal medulla [24] is now shown to consist of two enzymes working in series.

The nitty‐gritty of vascular permeability in cancer: targeting blood endothelium to control metastases

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Blood vascular permeability is a hallmark of cancer and acts as an active driver of metastatic dissemination. Metastasis accounts for the vast majority of cancer deaths, yet most work has focussed on tumour‐intrinsic traits and angiogenesis, while the specific contribution of endothelial barrier regulation to intravasation and extravasation remains ...

Characterization of Type-2 Diacylglycerol Acyltransferases in the Green Microalga Chromochloris zofingiensis

open access: yes, 2018
Diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) catalyzes the last and committed step of the acyl-CoA-dependent TAG biosynthesis and thus is a key target for manipulating oil production in microalgae.

The ongoing oleoylethanolamide story: Therapeutic implications in the control of obesity and its comorbidities

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The global burden of obesity continues to rise, demanding effective pharmacological strategies for individuals in whom prevention alone is insufficient. Recent incretin‐based and multi‐agonist therapies have delivered unprecedented weight loss, demonstrating that the simultaneous modulation of multiple metabolic pathways can optimize body weight ...

A New Case of Lethal Congenital Contracture Syndrome Type 3 With Hyperinsulinism and Optic Atrophy

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
PIP5K1C‐related lethal congenital contracture syndrome with hyperinsulinism and optic atrophy. ABSTRACT Lethal congenital contracture syndrome 3 (LCCS3, MIM #611369) is a rare autosomal recessive neuromuscular disorder caused by biallelic loss‐of‐function (LOF) variants in PIP5K1C, reported in only two families to date.

Macrophage Lipid Homeostasis Drives IVDD via a Senescence‐Dependent Impairment of Efferocytosis

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) has been a leading cause of low back pain and lacks disease‐modifying therapies. Although dysregulated disc lipid metabolism is implicated, its impact on the immune microenvironment, particularly macrophages, remains unknown.

Dyslipidaemia, Chronic Kidney Disease and Diabetes Mellitus: A Triple Threat to Cardiovascular Health

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diabetes mellitus (DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) frequently coexist and together create a ‘triple threat’ with dyslipidaemia, enhancing the risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) leads to altered lipid metabolism through insulin resistance, inflammation and oxidative stress resulting in an ...
