Concise Synthesis of Glycerophospholipids
Glycerophospholipids are major components of cellular membranes and provide important signaling molecules. Besides shaping membrane properties, some bind to specific receptors to activate biological pathways. Untangling the roles of individual glycerophospholipids requires clearly defined molecular species, a challenge that can be best addressed ...

Distribution of Glycerophospholipids in the Adult Human Lens [PDF]
In humans, the age of fibre cells differs across the ocular lens, ranging from those formed before birth in the core of the lens to those formed just prior to death in the outer cortex. The distribution of glycerophospholipids in the adult human lens should reflect this range; however, limited data currently exists to confirm this hypothesis ...

Dietary Effects on Plasma Glycerophospholipids
ABSTRACTObjective:Human milk provides a complex mixture of animal lipids, whereas the fat supply of most modern infant formula is based on vegetable oils. We studied the effects of breast‐feeding and of feeding infant formula either without or with dairy goat lipids on the composition of infant plasma glycerophospholipids.Methods:Healthy‐term infants ...

Efficient and specific analysis of red blood cell glycerophospholipid fatty acid composition. [PDF]
Red blood cell (RBC) n-3 fatty acid status is related to various health outcomes. Accepted biological markers for the fatty acid status determination are RBC phospholipids, phosphatidylcholine, and phosphatidyletholamine.

A rapid ambient ionization-mass spectrometry approach to monitoring the relative abundance of isomeric glycerophospholipids [PDF]
Glycerophospholipids with two, non-equivalent fatty acyl chains can adopt one of two isomeric forms depending on the relative position of substitutions on the glycerol backbone.

The Various Roles of Fatty Acids
Lipids comprise a large group of chemically heterogeneous compounds. The majority have fatty acids (FA) as part of their structure, making these compounds suitable tools to examine processes raging from cellular to macroscopic levels of organization ...

Metabolic Perturbations Caused by the Over-Expression of mcr-1 in Escherichia coli
Rapid dissemination of the plasmid-born polymyxin resistance gene mcr-1 poses a critical medical challenge. MCR-1 expression is tightly controlled and imposes a fitness cost on the bacteria.

High-throughput analysis of fatty acid composition of plasma glycerophospholipids[S]
Plasma FA composition, a marker of FA status and dietary intake, is associated with health outcomes on a short- and long-term basis. Detailed investigation of the relationships between plasma FA composition and health requires the analysis of large ...

The Acinetobacter baumannii Mla system and glycerophospholipid transport to the outer membrane
The outer membrane (OM) of Gram-negative bacteria serves as a selective permeability barrier that allows entry of essential nutrients while excluding toxic compounds, including antibiotics.
