Lipid Rafts and Plant Gravisensitivity

Life, 2022
The necessity to include plants as a component of a Bioregenerative Life Support System leads to investigations to optimize plant growth facilities as well as a better understanding of the plant cell membrane and its numerous activities in the signaling, transport, and sensing of gravity, drought, and other stressors.

Cell surface interactome analysis identifies TSPAN4 as a negative regulator of PD‐L1 in melanoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Using cell surface proximity biotinylation, we identified tetraspanin TSPAN4 within the PD‐L1 interactome of melanoma cells. TSPAN4 negatively regulates PD‐L1 expression and lateral mobility by limiting its interaction with CMTM6 and promoting PD‐L1 degradation.

Lipid rafts in plants

Planta, 2005
About two decades ago a provocative hypothesis evolved suggesting that the plasma membrane (PM) of mammalian and probably other eukaryotic cells constitutes a mosaic of patches comprising particular molecular compositions. These scattered lipid bilayer microdomains are supposedly enriched in sterols as well as sphingolipids and depleted in unsaturated ...

Membrane Organization and Lipid Rafts [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2011
Cell membranes are composed of a lipid bilayer, containing proteins that span the bilayer and/or interact with the lipids on either side of the two leaflets. Although recent advances in lipid analytics show that membranes in eukaryotic cells contain hundreds of different lipid species, the function of this lipid diversity remains enigmatic.

The role of lipid metabolism in neuronal senescence

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Disrupted lipid metabolism, through alterations in lipid species or lipid droplet accumulation, can drive neuronal senescence. However, lipid dyshomeostasis can also occur alongside neuronal senescence, further amplifying tissue damage. Delineating how lipid‐induced senescence emerges in neurons and glial cells, and how it contributes to ageing and ...

Lipid-rafts remain stable even after ionizing radiation induced disintegration of β1 integrin containing focal adhesions

BMC Research Notes, 2017
Objective Adhesion of cells to the extracellular matrix is facilitated by integrin receptors. We recently found that a nanoscale organization of plasma membrane located integrins containing the β1 subunit is responsible for an enhanced radio-resistance ...

Lipid Raft is required for PSGL-1 ligation induced HL-60 cell adhesion on ICAM-1. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
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 trafficking and targeting of P2X receptors [PDF]

, 2013
The functional expression of P2X receptors at the plasma membrane is dependent on their trafficking along secretory and endocytic pathways. There are seven P2X receptor subunits, and these differ in their subcellular distributions because they have very ...

Intercompartmental communication in senescence

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Senescent cells experience structural changes in the plasma membrane, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, lysosomes, nucleus, and cytoskeleton. These alterations disrupt crosstalk among cellular compartments, impairing vesicular trafficking, contact sites, and molecular flow.

Pharmacological tools to modulate ordered membrane domains and order-dependent protein function

Communications Chemistry
Ordered membrane nanodomains colloquially known as “lipid rafts” have many proposed cellular functions. However, pharmacological tools to modulate protein affinity for rafts and to manipulate raft formation are currently lacking. We screened 24,000 small
