Mammary Tumorigenesis through LPA Receptor Signaling [PDF]
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a lipid growth factor that is produced by an extracellular phospholipase, termed autotaxin (ATX), and acts via G protein-coupled receptors. In this issue of Cancer Cell, Liu et al. show that transgenic overexpression of ATX or LPA receptors leads to invasive and metastatic mammary cancer.

Role of lysophosphatidic acid and its receptors in health and disease: novel therapeutic strategies
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is an abundant bioactive phospholipid, with multiple functions both in development and in pathological conditions. Here, we review the literature about the differential signaling of LPA through its specific receptors, which ...

Regulation of LPA receptor function by estrogens
17beta-Estradiol induced LPA(1) receptor desensitization in C9 cells stably expressing LPA(1) receptors and transiently expressing estrogen receptor alpha. Such desensitization was evidenced by a reduction in lysophosphatidic acid-mediated Ca(2+)mobilization and it was associated to receptor phosphorylation and internalization.

Gintonin is a ginseng-derived exogenous G-protein-coupled lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptor ligand. Gintonin exerts its neuronal and non-neuronal in vitro and in vivo effects through LPA receptor subtypes. However, it is unknown whether gintonin can bind to the plasma membrane of cells and can transactivate the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor.

ATX-LPA receptor axis in inflammation and cancer [PDF]
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA, 1- or 2-acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate) mediates a plethora of physiological and pathological activities via interactions with a series of high affinity G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR). Both LPA receptor family members and autotaxin (ATX/LysoPLD), the primary LPA-producing enzyme, are aberrantly expressed in many human ...

Autotaxin-Lysophosphatidic Acid: From Inflammation to Cancer Development
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a ubiquitous lysophospholipid and one of the main membrane-derived lipid signaling molecules. LPA acts as an autocrine/paracrine messenger through at least six G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), known as LPA1–6, to induce
