Relationship of epidermal lipogenesis to cutaneous barrier function.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1987
Although the lipids of mammalian stratum corneum are known to be important for the cutaneous permeability barrier, the factors that regulate epidermal lipid biosynthesis are poorly understood.

A pathway-directed positive growth restoration assay to facilitate the discovery of lipid A and fatty acid biosynthesis inhibitors in Acinetobacter baumannii. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC 19606 can grow without lipooligosaccharide (LOS). Lack of LOS can result from disruption of the early lipid A biosynthetic pathway genes lpxA, lpxC or lpxD. Although LOS itself is not essential for growth of A. baumannii ATCC

RNA Sequencing (RNA-Seq) Analysis Reveals Liver Lipid Metabolism Divergent Adaptive Response to Low- and High-Salinity Stress in Spotted Scat (Scatophagus argus)

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
Spotted scat (Scatophagus argus) can tolerate a wide range of salinity fluctuations. It is a good model for studying environmental salinity adaptation. Lipid metabolism plays an important role in salinity adaptation in fish. To elucidate the mechanism of

Patient‐specific pharmacogenomics demonstrates xCT as predictive therapeutic target in colon cancer with possible implications in tumor connectivity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study integrates transcriptomic profiling of matched tumor and healthy tissues from 32 colorectal cancer patients with functional validation in patient‐derived organoids, revealing dysregulated metabolic programs driven by overexpressed xCT (SLC7A11) and SLC3A2, identifying an oncogenic cystine/glutamate transporter signature linked to ...

Transcriptome-based analysis of the effects of salicylic acid and high light on lipid and astaxanthin accumulation in Haematococcus pluvialis

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2021
Background The unicellular alga Haematococcus pluvialis has achieved considerable interests for its capacity to accumulate large amounts of triacylglycerol and astaxanthin under various environmental stresses.

Role of Esrrg in the Fibrate-Mediated Regulation of Lipid Metabolism Genes in Human ApoA-I Transgenic Mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We have used a new ApoA-I transgenic mouse model to identify by global gene expression profiling, candidate genes that affect lipid and lipoprotein metabolism in response to fenofibrate treatment.

Solving a furan fatty acid biosynthesis puzzle [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2020
Furan fatty acids (FuFAs), characterized by a central furan moiety, are widely dispersed in nature, but their biosynthetic origins are not clear. A new study from Lemke et al employs a full court press of genetics, genomics, biochemical, and advanced analytical techniques to dissect the biosynthetic pathway of mono- and dimethyl FuFAs and their ...

Colorectal cancer‐derived FGF19 is a metabolically active serum biomarker that exerts enteroendocrine effects on mouse liver

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Meta‐transcriptome analysis identified FGF19 as a peptide enteroendocrine hormone associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. In vivo xenograft models showed release of FGF19 into the blood at levels that correlated with tumor volumes. Tumoral‐FGF19 altered murine liver metabolism through FGFR4, thereby reducing bile acid synthesis and increasing ...

A seasonal dynamics of free fatty acid content and gene expression provides new insights into the fatty acid metabolism in Acer truncatum seeds

open access: yesIndustrial Crops and Products
Acer truncatum Bunge (ATB) seed oil has garnered attention in China as a promising edible oil due to its diverse health benefits. The transcriptome and targeted metabolome analyses were conducted on ATB seeds collected from Tongliao, Inner Mongolia (IMTL)

A conditional mutant of the fatty acid synthase unveils unexpected cross talks in mycobacterial lipid metabolism [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2017
Unlike most bacteria, mycobacteria rely on the multi-domain enzyme eukaryote-like fatty acid synthase I (FAS I) to make fatty acids de novo. These metabolites are precursors of the biosynthesis of most of the lipids present both in the complex ...
