Attenuation of sn-1,2-diacylglycerol second messengers by diacylglycerol kinase. Inhibition by diacylglycerol analogs in vitro and in human platelets.

open access: hybridJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1986
Diacylglycerol kinase is though to play a central role in the metabolism of diacylglycerol second messengers in agonist-stimulated cells. A series of diacylglycerol analogs were tested for their ability to act as substrates or inhibitors of diacylglycerol kinase with the goal of determining the substrate specificity of the enzyme, and of discovering ...

Evidence for a compartmentation of brain microsomal diacylglycerol

open access: hybridJournal of Lipid Research, 1982
Phosphatidylcholine synthesis from CDP-[methyl-14C]choline and membrane-bound diacyl-[U-14C]-sn-glycerol, formed through the glycerol phosphate pathway, has been examined in vitro in rat brain microsomes.

The role of diacylglycerol in the exocytosis of the sperm acrosome. Studies using diacylglycerol lipase and diacylglycerol kinase inhibitors and exogenous diacylglycerols [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1992
When ram spermatozoa were treated with Ca2+ and the ionophore A23187 to induce acrosomal exocytosis, a rise in diacylglycerol (DAG) mass was observed, concomitant with a rapid breakdown of [32P]P1-labelled phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and a rise in [32P]Pi-labelled phosphatidate. Inclusion of the DAG lipase

Diacylglycerol kinase η1 is a high affinity isozyme for diacylglycerol [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 2015
Diacylglycerol kinase (DGK) η plays important roles in various patho‐physiological events such as oncogenesis. In this study, we performed an enzymological characterization of DGKη splice variant 1 (DGKη1). The K m value for diacylglycerol was 0.14 mol%.

Engineering the Thermostability of the Mono- and Diacylglycerol Lipase SMG1 for the Synthesis of Diacylglycerols

open access: yesFoods, 2022
Diacylglycerols (DAGs) display huge application prospectives in food industries. Therefore, new strategies to produce diacylglycerides are needed. Malassezia globose lipase (SMG1) could be used to synthesize DAGs. However, the poor thermostability of SMG1 seriously hampers its application.

Insulin Action on Polyunsaturated Phosphatidic Acid Formation in Rat Brain: An “In Vitro” Model with Synaptic Endings from Cerebral Cortex and Hippocampus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The highly efficient formation of phosphatidic acid from exogenous 1-stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol (SAG) in rat brain synaptic nerve endings (synaptosomes) from cerebral cortex and hippocampus is reported.

Fat-regulating phosphatidic acid phosphatase: a review of its roles and regulation in lipid homeostasis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2019
Phosphatidic acid (PA) phosphatase is an evolutionarily conserved enzyme that plays a major role in lipid homeostasis by controlling the cellular levels of its substrate, PA, and its product, diacylglycerol.

Hepatic Diacylglycerol-Associated Protein Kinase Cε Translocation Links Hepatic Steatosis to Hepatic Insulin Resistance in Humans

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
Hepatic lipid accumulation has been implicated in the development of insulin resistance, but translational evidence in humans is limited. We investigated the relationship between liver fat and tissue-specific insulin sensitivity in 133 obese subjects ...

Induced hyperlipaemia and immune challenge in locusts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Injections of immunogens, such as β-1,3-glucan or lipopolysaccharide (LPS), bring about a marked hyperlipaemia with associated changes in lipophorins and apolipophorin-III in the haemolymph of Locusta migratoria.
