Extracellular membrane vesicles (EMVs) are produced by many Gram-positive organisms, but information regarding vesiculogenesis is incomplete. We used single gene deletions to evaluate the impacts on Streptococcus mutans EMV biogenesis of Sortase A (SrtA),

IntroductionPhagocytosis of inhaled crystalline silica (cSiO2) particles by tissue-resident alveolar macrophages (AMs) initiates generation of proinflammatory eicosanoids derived from the ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) arachidonic acid (ARA) that ...

Defining the Baseline and Oxidant Perturbed Lipidomic Profiles of Daphnia magna
Recent technological advancement has enabled the emergence of lipidomics as an important tool for assessing molecular stress, one which has yet to be assessed fully as an approach in an environmental toxicological context.

AbstractLipid metabolism and signalling play pivotal functions in biology and disease development. Despite this, there is currently no optical technique available that can directly visualise the lipidome in tissues. In this study, we introduce opto-lipidomics, a new approach to optical molecular tissue imaging.

Comparative lipid profiling dataset of the inflammation-induced optic nerve regeneration. [PDF]
In adult mammals, retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) fail to regenerate following damage. As a result, RGCs die after acute injury and in progressive degenerative diseases such as glaucoma; this can lead to permanent vision loss and, eventually, blindness ...

Free fatty acids support oligodendrocyte survival in a mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
IntroductionAmyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by the white matter degeneration. Although changes in blood lipids are involved in the pathogenesis of neurological diseases, the pathological role of ...

Animal cell cytokinesis: the role of dynamic changes in the plasma membrane proteome and lipidome [PDF]
In animal cells, cytokinesis is characterised by the formation of the mitotic spindle that signals the assembly of an actomyosin ring between the spindle poles.

ABSTRACTLipidomics is a distinct subspecialty of metabolomics concerned with hydrophobic molecules that organize into membranes. Most of the lipid classes present inMycobacterium tuberculosisare found only inActinobacteriaand show extreme structural diversity. This article highlights the conceptual basis and the practical challenges associated with the

Complex glycerolipidome analysis of wheat upon low temperature stress has been reported for above-ground tissues only. There are no reports on the effects of cold stress on the root lipidome nor on tissue-specific responses of cold stress wheat roots ...

Membranes by the Numbers [PDF]
Many of the most important processes in cells take place on and across membranes. With the rise of an impressive array of powerful quantitative methods for characterizing these membranes, it is an opportune time to reflect on the structure and function ...
