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.

Sphingolipids as emerging mediators in retina degeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The sphingolipids ceramide (Cer), sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), sphingosine (Sph), and ceramide-1-phosphate (C1P) are key signaling molecules that regulate major cellular functions.

Berberine for prevention of dementia associated with diabetes and its comorbidities: A systematic review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background A growing number of epidemiological studies indicate that metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its associated features play a key role in the development of certain degenerative brain disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia ...

Lipid signalling in cardiovascular pathophysiology [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovascular Research, 2008
Although the role of lipids in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease has been appreciated for several decades, recent studies have advanced our understanding and revealed complex new functions and interactions for lipid molecules that are both beneficial and adverse.

The role of extended synaptotagmin at membrane contact sites in cancer research

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Membrane contact sites (MCSs) are adjacent locations between the membranes of two different organelles and play important roles in various physiological processes, including cellular calcium and lipid signaling.

Glycosylphosphatidylinositols: More than just an anchor? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
There is increasing interest in the role of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchors that attach some proteins to cell membranes. Far from being biologically inert, GPIs influence the targeting, intracellular trafficking and function of the attached ...

Ceramide synthase inhibition by fumonisins: a perfect storm of perturbed sphingolipid metabolism, signaling, and disease[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2019
Fumonisins are mycotoxins that cause diseases of plants and, when consumed by animals, can damage liver, kidney, lung, brain, and other organs, alter immune function, and cause developmental defects and cancer.

Phosphorylation of CLEC-2 is dependent on lipid rafts, actin polymerization,secondary mediators, and Rac [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
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 ...

Sterol transporters at membrane contact sites regulate TORC1 and TORC2 signaling. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Membrane contact sites (MCSs) function to facilitate the formation of membrane domains composed of specialized lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. In cells, membrane domains regulate membrane dynamics and biochemical and signaling pathways.
