Evidence for the involvement of lipid rafts localized at the ER-mitochondria associated membranes in autophagosome formation [PDF]

open access: yesAutophagy, 2016
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.

Protective Function of Lipid Rafts [PDF]

open access: yesCaspian Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2021
The study of lipid rafts allowed us to take a new look at the morphology, organization and functioning of membranes, both of animal and plant origin.

Lipid rafts and neurodegeneration: structural and functional roles in physiologic aging and neurodegenerative diseases

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2020
Lipid rafts are small, dynamic membrane areas characterized by the clustering of selected membrane lipids as the result of the spontaneous separation of glycolipids, sphingolipids, and cholesterol in a liquid-ordered phase.

Lipid Rafts and Plant Gravisensitivity. [PDF]

open access: yesLife (Basel), 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.

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

open access: yesBMC 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).

Lipid rafts and pathogens: the art of deception and exploitation

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2020
Lipid rafts, solid regions of the plasma membrane enriched in cholesterol and glycosphingolipids, are essential parts of a cell. Functionally, lipid rafts present a platform that facilitates interaction of cells with the outside world.

Manipulation of lipid rafts in neuronal cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Lipid rafts are specialized plasma membrane micro-domains highly enriched in cholesterol, sphingolipids and glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchored proteins.

Exosomes containing HIV protein Nef reorganize lipid rafts potentiating inflammatory response in bystander cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
HIV infection has a profound effect on "bystander" cells causing metabolic co-morbidities. This may be mediated by exosomes secreted by HIV-infected cells and containing viral factors.
