Fusobacterium nucleatum Promotes Colorectal Cancer Cell to Acquire Stem Cell‐Like Features by Manipulating Lipid Droplet‐Mediated Numb Degradation

open access: yesAdvancement of science, 2022
Fusobacterium nucleatum is a critical microbe that contributes to colorectal cancer progression and chemoresistance. However, whether and how F. nucleatum regulates colorectal cancer stem‐like cells (CCSCs) remains unknown. Here, the authors show that F.

TREM2-dependent lipid droplet biogenesis in phagocytes is required for remyelination

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Medicine, 2021
Remyelination requires the clearance of cholesterol-rich myelin debris within demyelinating lesions by phagocytes. Gouna et al. found that TREM2-dependent formation of lipid droplets is necessary to buffer excess lipids released by myelin injury and ...

Besnoitia besnoiti infection alters both endogenous cholesterol de novo synthesis and exogenous LDL uptake in host endothelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Besnoitia besnoiti, an apicomplexan parasite of cattle being considered as emergent in Europe, replicates fast in host endothelial cells during acute infection and is in considerable need for energy, lipids and other building blocks for offspring ...

The Lipid Droplet Knowledge Portal: A resource for systematic analyses of lipid droplet biology

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2021
Lipid droplets (LDs) are organelles of cellular lipid storage with fundamental roles in energy metabolism and cell membrane homeostasis. There has been an explosion of research into the biology of LDs, in part due to their relevance in diseases of lipid ...

Identification of prognostic lipid droplet-associated genes in pancreatic cancer patients via bioinformatics analysis

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2021
Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States both in females and in males, and is projected to become the second deadliest cancer by 2030. The overall 5-year survival rate remains at around 10%.

Self-assembly of Tween 80 micelles as nanocargos for oregano and trans-cinnamaldehyde plant-derived compounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The self-assembly of Tween 80 (T80) micelles loaded with plant-based oregano essential oil (OR) and trans-cinnamaldehyde (TCA) was studied. The effect of different factors, including the surfactant to oil ratio, the presence of sodium chloride, thermal ...

Seipin forms a flexible cage at lipid droplet formation sites

open access: yesNature Structural & Molecular Biology, 2021
Lipid droplets (LDs) form in the endoplasmic reticulum by phase separation of neutral lipids. This process is facilitated by the seipin protein complex, which consists of a ring of seipin monomers, with a yet unclear function. Here, we report a structure
