Host Lipid Rafts Play a Major Role in Binding and Endocytosis of Influenza A Virus

Viruses, 2018
Influenza still remains one of the most challenging diseases, posing a significant threat to public health. Host lipid rafts play a critical role in influenza A virus (IAV) assembly and budding, however, their role in polyvalent IAV host binding and ...

The Roles of Membrane Rafts in CD32A-Mediated Phagocytosis [PDF]

, 2007
Membrane rafts are highly dynamic heterogeneous sterol- and sphingolipid-rich micro-domains on cell surfaces. They are generally believed to provide residency for cell surface molecules (e.g., adhesion and signaling molecules) and scaffolding to ...

Lipid Raft Microdomains [PDF]

The Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2002
Spatiotemporal aspects of filovirus entry and release are poorly understood. Lipid rafts act as functional platforms for multiple cellular signaling and trafficking processes. Here, we report the compartmentalization of Ebola and Marburg viral proteins within lipid rafts during viral assembly and budding.

Cannabinoid receptors distribution in mouse cortical plasma membrane compartments

Molecular Brain, 2021
The type 1 and type 2 cannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2 receptors) are class A G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that are activated by endogenous lipids called endocannabinoids to modulate neuronal excitability and synaptic transmission in neurons ...

Flagellar membrane association via interaction with lipid rafts [PDF]

, 2009
The eukaryotic flagellar membrane has a distinct composition from other domains of the plasmalemma. Our work shows that the specialized composition of the trypanosome flagellar membrane reflects increased concentrations of sterols and saturated fatty ...

Aggregation of lipid rafts activates c-met and c-Src in non-small cell lung cancer cells

BMC Cancer, 2018
Background Activation of c-Met, a receptor tyrosine kinase, induces radiation therapy resistance in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The activated residual of c-Met is located in lipid rafts (Duhon et al. Mol Carcinog 49:739-49, 2010).

Loss of hepatic SMLR1 causes hepatosteatosis and protects against atherosclerosis due to decreased hepatic VLDL secretion

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
The role of SMLR1 in lipid metabolism (high fat + cholesterol diet in mice) Abstract Background and Aims The assembly and secretion of VLDL from the liver, a pathway that affects hepatic and plasma lipids, remains incompletely understood. We set out to identify players in the VLDL biogenesis pathway by identifying genes that are co‐expressed with the ...

Selective Cholesterol Dynamics between Lipoproteins and Caveolae/Lipid Rafts [PDF]

, 2007
Although low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor-mediated cholesterol uptake through clathrin-coated pits is now well understood, the molecular details and organizing principles for selective cholesterol uptake/efflux (reverse cholesterol transport, RCT ...

Cafs-Derived Ffa Promotes Oral Cancer By Lipid Raft Synthesis

International Dental Journal
Aim or purpose: Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are critical for oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) progression. Given that CAFs display elevated lipid metabolic activity and secrete free fatty acids (FFA) to support tumor cells.

Lipid rafts and membrane traffic [PDF]

FEBS Letters, 2007
Membrane rafts are regions of increased lipid acyl chain order that differ in their lipid and protein composition from the surrounding membrane. By providing an additional level of compartmentalization they have been proposed to serve many functions in cellular signal transduction and trafficking. We will review their potential involvement in different
