Enhancing microalgal lipid accumulation for biofuel production
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Microalgae have high lipid accumulation capacity, high growth rate and high photosynthetic efficiency which are considered as one of the most promising alternative sustainable feedstocks for producing lipid-based biofuels.

STK25 as a regulator of lipid accumulation [PDF]
, 2018 Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a progressive form of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), have become widespread metabolic disorders that have reached epidemic proportions. Obesity, with ectopic lipid accumulation, is the main factor for the development and subsequent progression of T2DM and NASH.

LipiD-QuanT: a novel method to quantify lipid accumulation in live cells[S] [PDF]
Journal of Lipid Research, 2015 Lipid droplets (LDs) are the main storage organelles for triglycerides. Elucidation of lipid accumulation mechanisms and metabolism are essential to understand obesity and associated diseases. Adipogenesis has been well studied in murine 3T3-L1 and human

Astrocytes in stress accumulate lipid droplets [PDF]
Glia, 2021 AbstractWhen the brain is in a pathological state, the content of lipid droplets (LDs), the lipid storage organelles, is increased, particularly in glial cells, but rarely in neurons. The biology and mechanisms leading to LD accumulation in astrocytes, glial cells with key homeostatic functions, are poorly understood.

Lipid metabolism and accumulation in oilseed crops [PDF]
OCL, 2021 Triacylglycerols (TAGs) serve as the most important storage form of energy and carbon in eukaryotic cells and thus are one of the fundamental macronutrients for animal and human diet. They are also used as a major feedstock for diverse industrial and energetic sectors due to their high energy density. Oilseed crops represent the most valuable source of

Lipid accumulation and oxidation in glioblastoma multiforme [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2019 AbstractGlioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and lethal primary malignant brain tumor in adults. Despite the multimodal standard treatments for GBM, the median survival is still about one year. Analysis of brain tissues from GBM patients shows that lipid droplets are highly enriched in tumor tissues while undetectable in normal brain ...

Chloroquine-Induced Accumulation of Autophagosomes and Lipids in the Endothelium [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 Chloroquine (CQ) is an antimalarial drug known to inhibit autophagy flux by impairing autophagosome–lysosome fusion. We hypothesized that autophagy flux altered by CQ has a considerable influence on the lipid composition of endothelial cells. Thus, we investigated endothelial responses induced by CQ on human microvascular endothelial cells (HMEC-1 ...

THE SOURCE OF LIPID ACCUMULATION IN L CELLS [PDF]
The Journal of Cell Biology, 1961 Strain L cells accumulate lipid, concurrent with cessation of protein synthesis, in the stationary phase of growth from the extracellular medium and as a result of de novo synthesis. Cells which have been more severely damaged with an amino acid analogue also accumulate lipid from the extracellular medium, but synthesize very little lipid from labeled ...

BRAF Modulates Lipid Use and Accumulation
Cancers, 2022 There is increasing evidence that oxidative metabolism and fatty acids play an important role in BRAF-driven tumorigenesis, yet the effect of BRAF mutation and expression on metabolism is poorly understood. We examined how BRAF mutation and expression modulates metabolite abundance.

Fungal Lipids: The Biochemistry of Lipid Accumulation [PDF]
International Journal of Chemical Engineering and Applications, 2014 derived from agricultural products, and the remainder coming from animal and marine sources. It is essential to find new sources for oil and protein supplement with concern to the nutritional problems accompanying the rapid growth of world's population.
