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

Flagellar membrane association via interaction with lipid rafts [PDF]
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 ...

Evidence for the involvement of lipid rafts localized at the ER-mitochondria associated membranes in autophagosome formation [PDF]
Mitochondria-associated membranes (MAMs) are subdomains of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) that interact with mitochondria. This membrane scrambling between ER and mitochondria appears to play a critical role in the earliest steps of autophagy.

Lipid Raft-Mediated Regulation of Hyaluronan–CD44 Interactions in Inflammation and Cancer
Hyaluronan is a major component of the extracellular matrix and plays pivotal roles in inflammation and cancer. Hyaluronan oligomers are frequently found in these pathological conditions, in which they exert their effects via association with the ...

Phosphorylation of CLEC-2 is dependent on lipid rafts, actin polymerization,secondary mediators, and Rac [PDF]
The C-type lectin-like receptor 2 (CLEC-2)activates platelets through Src and Syk tyrosine kinases via a single cytoplasmic YxxL motif known as a hem immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (hemITAM).Here, we demonstrate using sucrose gradient ...

Lipid Raft is required for PSGL-1 ligation induced HL-60 cell adhesion on ICAM-1. [PDF]
P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) and integrins are adhesion molecules that play critical roles in host defense and innate immunity. PSGL-1 mediates leukocyte rolling and primes leukocytes for integrin-mediated adhesion.

The Many Faces of Lipid Rafts [PDF]
Recent experimental observations in raft-forming lipid bilayers demonstrated a phase behavior unsuspected just a few years ago (1,2). Mixtures of Chol (cholesterol) with disordered (unsaturated) and ordered (saturated) phospholipids change their phase behavior from apparently uniform phases to modulated phases to complete phase separation by small ...

Monolayer curvature stabilizes nanoscale raft domains in mixed lipid bilayers [PDF]
According to the lipid raft hypothesis, biological lipid membranes are laterally heterogeneous and filled with nanoscale ordered “raft” domains, which are believed to play an important role for the organization of proteins in membranes.
