Archaeal glycerolipids are recognized by C-type lectin receptor Mincle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Recently, various metabolites derived from host microbes have been reported to modulate the immune system, with potential involvement in health or diseases. Archaea, prokaryotic organisms, are present in the human body, but their connection with the host

Incorporation of ricinoleic acid into glycerolipids [PDF]

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1971
Abstract The coenzyme A thiol ester of ricinoleic acid was synthesized and characterized. Ricinoleoyl-CoA has been tested as an acyl donor in several in vitro systems using rat liver microsomal acyltransferases. It is essentially inactive when 1-acyl- or 2-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphoryl choline are used as acceptors, however, it can serve as acyl ...

The Role of Chloroplast Membrane Lipid Metabolism in Plant Environmental Responses

open access: yesCells, 2021
Plants are nonmotile life forms that are constantly exposed to changing environmental conditions during the course of their life cycle. Fluctuations in environmental conditions can be drastic during both day–night and seasonal cycles, as well as in the ...

Lipidomic Profiling Reveals Distinct Differences in Sphingolipids Metabolic Pathway between Healthy Apis cerana cerana larvae and Chinese Sacbrood Disease

open access: yesInsects, 2021
Chinese sacbrood disease (CSD), which is caused by Chinese sacbrood virus (CSBV), is a major viral disease in Apis cerana cerana larvae. Analysis of lipid composition is critical to the study of CSBV replication.

Lipidomics Reveals a Tissue-Specific Fingerprint

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
In biological systems lipids generate membranes and have a key role in cell signaling and energy storage. Therefore, there is a wide diversity of molecular lipid expressed at the compositional level in cell membranes and organelles, as well as in tissues,

A comprehensive classification system for lipids1

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
Lipids are produced, transported, and recognized by the concerted actions of numerous enzymes, binding proteins, and receptors. A comprehensive analysis of lipid molecules, “lipidomics,” in the context of genomics and proteomics is crucial to ...

A Metabolomics Analysis of Postmenopausal Breast Cancer Risk in the Cancer Prevention Study II

open access: yesMetabolites, 2021
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women, but its incidence can only be partially explained through established risk factors. Our aim was to use metabolomics to identify novel risk factors for breast cancer and to validate recently reported ...

Mitochondrial Lipid Signaling and Adaptive Thermogenesis

open access: yesMetabolites, 2021
Thermogenesis is an energy demanding process by which endotherms produce heat to maintain their body temperature in response to cold exposure. Mitochondria in the brown and beige adipocytes play a key role in thermogenesis, as the site for uncoupling ...
