A Simple Fluorescent Cholesterol Labeling Method to Cryoprotect and Detect Plasma Lipoprotein-X
Lipoprotein-X (LpX) are abnormal nephrotoxic lipoprotein particles enriched in free cholesterol and phospholipids. LpX with distinctive lipid compositions are formed in patients afflicted with either familial LCAT deficiency (FLD) or biliary cholestasis.

The metabolism of the molecular species of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and phosphatidylcholine (PC) derived from [3H]ethanolamine has been studied in rat hepatocytes during prolonged inhibition of phosphatidylethanolamine-N-methyltransferase (PEMT ...

Estimating the level of carbamoylated plasma non-high-density lipoproteins using infrared spectroscopy [PDF]
Background: The increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality observed in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients can be partly explained by the presence of carbamoylated lipoproteins. Lipid profiles can be determined with infrared spectroscopy. In this

Morphological features of Manduca sexta plasma lipid transfer particle (LTP) have been investigated by electron microscopy. LTP was found to be an asymmetric particle with two major structural features: a roughly spherical head and an elongated, hinged ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Pigs with two mutant epitopes, Lpb5 of apolipoprotein B (apoB) and Lpu1 of a yet undefined apolipoprotein, specified by a haplotype Lpb5-Lpu1 and fed a cholesterol-free low fat diet show hypercholesterolemia.

We recently showed that both nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) and its surface plasminogen- (Plg-) binding proteins interact with lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) in a lysine-dependent manner.

The role of fibroblast growth factors in cell and cancer metabolism
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling regulates crucial signaling cascades that promote cell proliferation, survival, and metabolism. Therefore, FGFs and their receptors are often dysregulated in human diseases, including cancer, to sustain proliferation and rewire metabolism.

Spirochetal Lipoproteins and Immune Evasion. [PDF]
Spirochetes are a major threat to public health. However, the exact pathogenesis of spirochetal diseases remains unclear. Spirochetes express lipoproteins that often determine the cross talk between the host and spirochetes.
