Metabotropic Purinergic Receptors in Lipid Membrane Microdomains
There is broad evidence that association of transmembrane receptors and signalling molecules with lipid rafts/caveolae provides an enriched environment for protein-protein interactions necessary for signal transduction, and a mechanism for the modulation of neurotransmitter and/or growth factor receptor function.

Segregation of lipids near acetylcholine-receptor channels imaged by cryo-EM
Rapid communication at the chemical synapse depends on the action of ion channels residing in the postsynaptic membrane. The channels open transiently upon the binding of a neurotransmitter released from the presynaptic nerve terminal, eliciting an ...

Neurodegenerative diseases are a class of slow-progressing terminal illnesses characterized by neuronal lesions, such as multiple sclerosis [MS, Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)]. Their incidence

Role of lipid microdomains in TLR-mediated signalling
Over the last twenty years, evidence has been provided that the plasma membrane is partitioned with microdomains, laterally mobile in the bilayer, providing the necessary microenvironment to specific membrane proteins for signalling pathways to be initiated.

The cytosolic N-terminus of CD317/tetherin is a membrane microdomain exclusion motif
Summary The integral membrane protein CD317/tetherin has been associated with a plethora of biological processes, including restriction of enveloped virus release, regulation of B cell growth, and organisation of membrane microdomains.

Exercise redox biochemistry:conceptual, methodological and technical recommendations [PDF]
Exercise redox biochemistry is of considerable interest owing to its translational value in health and disease. However, unaddressed conceptual, methodological and technical issues complicate attempts to unravel how exercise alters redox homeostasis in ...

Fish oil (FO) targets lipid microdomain organization to suppress T-cell and macrophage function; however, little is known about this relationship with B cells, especially at the animal level. We previously established that a high FO dose diminished mouse

Domain Growth Kinetics in a Cell-sized Liposome [PDF]
We investigated the kinetics of domain growth on liposomes consisting of a ternary mixture (unsaturated phospholipid, saturated phospholipid, and cholesterol) by temperature jump.
