The LPA receptors

Prostaglandins & Other Lipid Mediators, 2001
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a growth factor-like lipid that produces many cellular responses. These responses, including actin cytoskeletal rearrangements, cell proliferation and inhibition of gap junction communication, have been documented in many cell types over the last 2 decades.

LPA receptor 2 mediates LPA-induced endometrial cancer invasion

Gynecologic Oncology, 2009
We have previously shown that lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) promotes the ovarian cancer metastatic cascade. In this study, we evaluated the role of LPA on endometrial cancer invasion.Transient mRNA knockdown was accomplished using pre-designed siRNA duplexes against LPA receptor 2 (LPA2) and human matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7).

Tangier disease: isolation and characterization of LpA-I, LpA-II, LpA-I:A-II and LpA-IV particles from plasma

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 1993
Tangier disease (TD) is characterized by extremely low plasma levels of HDL, apoA-I and apoA-II due to very rapid catabolism. However, the risk of premature coronary heart disease (CHD) is not markedly increased in TD. In order to gain insight into reverse cholesterol transport in TD, we isolated LpA-I, LpA-I:A-II, LpA-II and LpA-IV particles from ...
